pH neutralization is a critical wastewater treatment process in many industrial manufacturing environments. Through proper design of the system and choice of sensor components, ongoing operation of the system can be optimized resulting in minimal maintenance and costs.

pH neutralization can be accomplished as a batch treatment or a continuous treatment. Whichever treatment mode is used, the more upfront data that can be gathered on the expected waste flow, temperatures, and waste stream constituents, the better the final system will operate.

After neutralization has been completed, the effluent is discharged to waste while a second pH sensor senses the discharge effluent’s pH. The sensor inputs this information to a recording device which provides a record of the discharge for inspection or for future reference.
