I think it would be at 5.5*/15= 0.367% or 8.5%/15= 0.567%.... but final? The injector mixes water into the solution during the injection, so that number gets cut further.
I did not compute the numbers.
I don't know. My
feeling is that the concentration is not critical, but I also feel they would be similar. I would prefer something more rigorous, of course.
Below is a snip from a Katalox Light brochure. I don't know if that is still available on the Internet. I interpret "KMnO4/Cl " to mean potassium permanganate or chlorine. Note that it says " Regeneration / Dosing". How would you interpret that? For dosing, it is easy to interpret I think. For regeneration, how do I use the numbers??? One interpretation is to dose with the calculated amount for the sum total of the contaminates that the filter has dealt with since the last regen. By that interpretation, the total chlorine (etc) use would be the same whether I inject continuously or use the chlorine during regeneration. Is that a good interpretation? I don't know. I feel uneasy with that. As we know, many people don't use regeneraton or dosing, and do fine with just the dissolved oxygen. But I remember seeing something about IRB being a problem. I have to think that IRB would be very common in wells with iron. How long does well sanitizing keep IRB away? I don't know. But I feel better with a bacteria-killing chemical during backwash or operation. I understand that
feel is not the best way to operate.
I will let you run the numbers, and please post what you come up with. Don't take this post to be a recommendation. I am not a pro. I am saying what I would be thinking about if I went to a KL system. My Centaur Carbon -based system handles my Fe and H2S nicely, so far.
