Food Grade Boiler Alkalinity Builder
The control of water pH and alkalinity levels is very important in low- and medium-pressure boilers to reduce corrosion. Depending on the natural feed water alkalinity it is often necessary to add an alkalinity builder in order to establish the correct boiler water chemistry by raising the feed water pH which helps to protect the system from acid corrosion.
Food Grade Boiler Alkalinity Builder
The control of water pH and alkalinity levels is very important in low- and medium-pressure boilers to reduce corrosion. Depending on the natural feed water alkalinity it is often necessary to add an alkalinity builder in order to establish the correct boiler water chemistry by raising the feed water pH which helps to protect the system from acid corrosion. Our unique formulation is an all-in-one precise blend of alkalinity builder softening agent and synthetic organic sludge conditioner. It helps to protect your boiler system from acidic corrosion as it is designed specifically for low hardness softened water and demineralized Water.

Product literature
Safe implementation
Review the current TDS and SDS before storage, handling, dilution or dosing. Confirm material compatibility, PPE, dosing point and treatment residuals with the site water-treatment specialist.
Common implementation questions.
How is the correct dosage selected?
Dosage depends on system volume or flow, water analysis, operating pressure or recovery, contaminant loading and the target residual. Start from the current product literature and optimise using measured results.
Can this product be selected only from the product name?
No. Similar problems can have different causes. Confirm the system type, water chemistry, metallurgy, operating conditions and existing treatment before changing the programme.
What should be monitored after starting treatment?
Monitor the application-specific parameters listed above, together with dosage, residual, system performance and equipment condition. Trend data is more useful than a single isolated reading.
Where can I obtain the latest TDS, MSDS or certificate?
Use the document links on this page where available, or contact Rakiro for the latest controlled copy.
