Hot and Cold Water

Cellulose. This is insoluble in water, hot and cold. It dissolves in a solution of Schweitzer s reagent (precipitated cupric hydroxide is washed free from salts and then dissolved in concentrated ammonia solution), from which it is precipitated by the addition of dilute acids. Cellulose is not hydrolysed by dilute hydrochloric acid.

This chapter covers information applicable to zinc corrosion behavior in general. Chapter 2 covers corrosion in the atmosphere—which is the most important group of environments in which zinc is used. Attack is usually approximately linear with time, but often with some reduction of rate as protective films form. Many results are available, and tables have been prepared for the guidance of designers. Water corrosion follows in Chapter 3, with distinctions between hard and soft tap water (hot and cold), temperate and tropical seawater, and tidal and splash zones. Buried structures—together with a section on earth reinforcement—follow in Chapter 4, and conditions appropriate for zinc sacrificial anodes are included in both Chapters 3 and 4. 

Provide Only the Heating or Cooling Actually Heeded. Generally, the supply temperature of hot and cold air, or water, should be reset according to actual need. This is especially important on systems or 2ones that allow simultaneous hea ting and cooling. 

Properties. HydroxyethjIceUulose [9004-62-0] (HEC), is a nonionic polymer. Low hydroxyethyl substitutions (MS = 0.05-0.5) yield products that are soluble only in aqueous alkali. Higher substitutions (MS > 1.5) produce water-soluble HEC. The bulk of commercial HEC falls into the latter category. Water-soluble HEC is widely used because of its broad compatibiUty with cations and the lack of a solution gel or precipitation point in water up to the boiling point. The MS of commercial HEC varies from about 1.8 to 3.5. The products are soluble in hot and cold water but insoluble in hydrocarbon solvents. HEC swells or becomes pardy to mosdy soluble in select polar solvents, usually those that are miscible with water. 

Adequate washing facilities with hot and cold running water, soap or hand cleanser, and drying provisions all conveniently located. 

Design of hot and cold water services to avoid water standing undisturbed for long periods. Use of covered tanks and cisterns with approved fittings and materials. 

Wherever chemicals are handled, adequate washing facilities are required conveniently situated with respect to the workplace. These comprise wash-basins or troughs with a constant supply of hot and cold or warm water soap or liquid hand cleanser clean towels or hot-air driers or disposable paper towels. Typical minimum standards are ... 

An additional topic to discuss from an introductory standpoint is thermal insulating materials. These materials are used to reduce the flow of heat between hot and cold regions. The sheathing often placed around steam and hot-water pipes, for instance, reduces heat loss to the surroundings, and insulation placed in the walls of a refrigerator reduces heat flow into the unit and permits it to stay cold. 

In direct contact heal exchange, there is no wall to separate hot and cold streams, and high rales of heal transfer are achieved. Applications include reactor off-gas quenching, vacuum condensers, desuperheating, and humidification. Water-cooling lowers are a particular example of a direct contact heal e.xchanger. In direct contact cooler-condensers, the condensed liquid is frequently used as the coolant. 

Prior to World War II, only about half of households in the United States had complete indoor plumbing facilities, including hot and cold water. Before indoor plumbing became widespread, water was heated on stoves in pots and pans, a difficult process that meant a lot less hot water was used. 

Central heating and domestic hot and cold water supplies ... 

General area services such as lighting, heating, hot and cold water and air conditioning can be registered in a way similar to that of emergency lights. 

Good washing facilities should be provided, together with hot and cold running water, soap, medically approved skin-cleansers, clean towels and, ideally, showers. In addition, reconditioning creams should be available. The provision of changing rooms, with lockers for working clothes, is recommended. 

Pure tin is completely resistant to distilled water, hot or cold. Local corrosion occurs in salt solutions which do not form insoluble compounds with stannous ions (e.g. chloride, bromide, sulphate, nitrate) but is unlikely in solutions giving stable precipitates (e.g. borate, mono-hydrogen phosphate, bicarbonate, iodide) . In all solutions, oxide film growth occurs and the potential of the metal rises. Any local dissolution may not begin for several days but, once it has begun, it will continue, its presence being manifested... 

Above ground (internal surfaces only) Surface and elevated water storage tanks condensers and heat exchangers hot-water storage tanks, processing tanks and vessels hot- and cold-water domestic storage tanks breweries and dairies (pasturisers). 

Both hot and cold processes are employed, although the hot process, which takes place at or above 212 °F (100 °C), is usually preferred for boiler FW applications, because it produces water of lower hardness levels and usually a lower silica content as well. Also, less lime is needed because the carbon dioxide with which it would normally react is driven off at the higher temperatures. Sometimes caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) is used in place of soda, depending on the alkalinity of the water and the chemical costs however, irrespective of the process or chemicals used, the major precipitants are always calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide. 

Nitrite formulations are employed for both hot and cold water closed loops (and also occasionally for open cooling systems). Unfortunately, nitrite is easily oxidized to nitrate and is very susceptible to microbiological attack (by Nitrobacter agilis and other microorganisms). Nevertheless, it is a good low-cost passivating inhibitor. 

Where glycols are added to both hot and cold water systems, it is common for the glycol to be supplied neat, preinhibited and buffered (although the glycol also may be supplied in a diluted and ready-to-use form). This formulation is an example of a type produced as an glycol inhibitor-pack concentrate ... 

The ease of access to utilities should also help determine the laboratory s location. Most laboratories will need hot and cold water, electric power, gas, and sewer connection. The cost of bringing these to a remote location may be high. The sewer is often the most problematic. Many a concrete slab has been tom up at considerable expense in order to install a laboratory sewer. A building professional should be consulted to give advice in such cases.
