holding the pH constant until evidence of precipitation was observed. The data in Table 3 show that the threshold SI for perceptible precipitation of calcium carbonate increases with pH. In contrast to the data in Table 2, a very high alkalinity was required to initiate precipitation of calcium carbonate. pH 7.2 7.6 8.0 8.4 Carbonate Alkalinity (ppm) 554 429 323 242 SI 0.5 0.8 1.1 1.4
