Softener effluent analysis:
Hardness: Maintain hardness of the softened feedwater near zero
and in no case allow it to exceed 1.0 part per million as CaCO3.
**************************************************************************
NOTE: At the text below, total solids of 175 ppm in
the feedwater concentrated 20 times give 3,500 ppm
in the boiler water.
**************************************************************************
Total solids: Maintain total solids in the softened feedwater at
a level to ensure a total solids concentration in the boiler water
of less than 3,500 ppm without excessive blowdown.
