Abstract
This paper describes laboratory experiments on the electrolytic deposition of scaling compounds from sea water. The dependence on applied current, time of deposition and the effect of sea water stirring is studied. X-ray diffraction patterns of scales are taken to confirm their composition. The pH changes of the sea water feed occurring during the experiments under varying currents are investigated. The possible application of these studies in controlling alkaline scale is suggested. The feasibility of using electro-deposition as a means for controlling alkaline as well as calcium sulfate scales in seawater distillation plants has been ascertained.
