Product Information

The role of oxygen in water

Technical explanation

oxygen:
Oxygen is a typical non-ionized gas. Dissolved oxygen in water is a major factor affecting how water treatment systems operate and how water treatment is applied. Oxygen causes corrosion, but at the same time contributes to the formation of passive protective films on metal surfaces. Some water treatment technologies require dissolved oxygen for better performance, while others work best in the absence of oxygen.

Oxygen has a solubility of approximately 13 mg/L at 0 °C and atmospheric pressure. 8 mg/L at 25°C and zero solubility in boiling water. Most natural water supplies contain dissolved oxygen. Dissolved oxygen in rainwater and surface water is usually saturated. The oxygen content of well water may be lower due to the specific reactions of chemicals and microorganisms in the water.
