Solution Approach
RawSource supplies the base chemicals that go into these programs. We can help with product selection, grade matching, and sourcing from multiple origins for supply security.
Typical Treatment Workflow
1
Water & System Assessment
Characterize the water and the system — hardness, alkalinity, pH, TDS/conductivity, microbial load, and the metallurgy and temperatures of the equipment being protected.
2
Program & Chemistry Selection
Match coagulants, flocculants, scale and corrosion inhibitors, biocides, or pH adjusters to the water profile and discharge limits, factoring compatibility with any existing program.
3
Jar Testing & Dosing
Confirm coagulant and flocculant dose and feed point by jar test, set inhibitor and biocide treat rates, and size packaging (drums, totes, bulk) to consumption.
4
Monitoring & Control
Track residuals, turbidity, ORP, corrosion coupons, and effluent compliance, adjusting chemistry and dose as feedwater and load change.
Recommended Chemistries (3)
Carbohydrazide
CAS 497-18-7
IAPWS guidance names it an acceptable hydrazine substitute; it decomposes to hydrazine in the boiler, so the same limits apply

Erythorbic Acid FCC K Pdr
CAS 89-65-6
The 2023 DoD manual UFC 3-230-13 lists erythorbic acid with carbohydrazide among the specialty scavengers for boilers over 900 psig
Full Details
Sodium Sulfite Anhy Tech Gran
CAS 7757-83-7
Specialty Additives
Standard sulfite scavenger
The 2023 DoD manual UFC 3-230-13 sets sulfite at 20-40 ppm against pitting in boilers up to 900 psig; above that, volatile scavengers apply
Melting Point: Decomposes Boiling Point: Decomposes Density: 2.633 at 15 °C
