Products at the two extremes (less than pH 1 or greater than pH 13) are extremely oppressive and corrosive. Examples include, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid on the acid end, and caustic soda on the alkaline end.

The task of any pH adjustment system is to adjust the pH of the process stream into the defined acceptable discharge range. In the case of an acid neutralization, caustic (NaOH) is added to the effluent stream to pH Neutralize the solution.

Caustic Chemicals & Bases ... Acids are chemicals whose first atom is hydrogen, and whose pH value is less than 7. Bases are chemicals whose molecular chain ends with an oxygen-hydrogen pair, and whose pH value is greater than 7. By comparison, distilled water, whose chemical formula is H2O, has the structure H-O-H,

Properly designed and operated, electrocoagulation will raise the pH and reduce or eliminate the caustic demand. It works for rinsewater but we do not recommend it for concentrated solutions. That's what chemicals are for.

The lime would control pH and also add Ca²+ which should benefit settling, while caustic addition would add Na+ to the solution which could potentially degrade floc properties according to the divalent cation bridging theory.
