1. Introduction Water softening is a critical unit process in both municipal water treatment and industrial process water preparation. It addresses the presence of dissolved calcium, magnesium, and other polyvalent cations that constitute “hardness.” For municipal consulting engineers and utility decision-makers, the selection of water softening systems is rarely a simple procurement exercise; it is […]
