2. Calcium Lime Rust - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_Lime_Rust

   Calcium Lime Rust, more commonly known as CLR, is a household cleaning product used for dissolving stains, such as calcium, lime, and iron oxide deposits. Ingredients [ edit ]

3. Swimming pool sanitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swimming_pool_sanitation

   Over time, calcium from municipal water tends to accumulate, developing salt deposits in the swimming pool walls and equipment (filters, pumps), reducing their effectiveness. Therefore, it is advised to either completely drain the pool, and refill it with fresh water, or recycle the existing pool water, using reverse osmosis. The advantage of ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie's

   Leslie's was founded in 1963 by Phil Leslie, Jr. (son of Hollywood comedy writer Phil Leslie, Sr.) in a single location in North Hollywood, Los Angeles.Leslie, together with partner Raymond Cesmat, began the company by opening a chain of swimming pool supply stores in the Greater Los Angeles area.

5. Lime softening - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lime_softening

   Lime softening produces large volumes of a mixture of calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide in a very finely divided white precipitate which may also contain some organic matter flocculated out of the raw water. Processing or disposal of this sludge material may be an additional cost to the process. Drying and re-calcining the waste allows ...

6. Water softening - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

   The surface of human skin has a light charge that the soap tends to bind with, requiring more effort and a greater volume of water to remove. [4] Hard water contains calcium or magnesium ions that form insoluble salts upon reacting with soap, leaving a coating of insoluble stearates on tub and shower surfaces, commonly called soap scum. [4] [5]

7. Descaling agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descaling_agent

   Limescale build-up inside a pipe reduces both liquid flow and thermal conduction from the pipe, so will reduce thermal efficiency when used as a heat exchanger.. A descaling agent or chemical descaler is a liquid chemical substance used to remove limescale from metal surfaces in contact with hot water, such as in boilers, water heaters, and kettles.

8. Chemical phosphorus removal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_phosphorus_removal

   Maintaining optimal pH is important for the removal of phosphorus from water. Phosphorus is most effectively removed at the neutral pH range, when the insoluble aluminum hydroxide is present. This hydroxide functions as a Lewis acid, [5] creating a flocculation environment similar to conventional wastewater treatment.

9. Hard water - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_water

   In swimming pools, hard water is manifested by a turbid, or cloudy (milky), appearance to the water. Calcium and magnesium hydroxides are both soluble in water. The solubility of the hydroxides of the alkaline-earth metals to which calcium and magnesium belong (group 2 of the periodic table) increases moving down the column. Aqueous solutions ...
