Abstract
A water chemical model involving the complexation and solubility equilibria of calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, manganese, silica, chloride, orthophosphate, and carbonate has been developed and applied to laboratory pipe‐loop‐coupon and field data on asbestos–cement pipe. Calculation of the saturation states of the relevant solids enables graphic guides to be prepared for the prediction of dosage levels for in‐situ pipe coating by zinc compounds as well as protection afforded by coatings formed by natural inhibitory constituents of the water.Keywords
