35、 4 Purity criteria 4.1 General This European Standard specifies the minimum purity requirements for sodium carbonate used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing pr

36、ocess other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to relevant authorities. NOTE Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumpt

37、ion, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the curr

38、ent production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The product shall contain not less than a mass fractio

39、n of 99 % of Na2CO3. 4.3 Impurities and main by-products The product shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1. The concentration limits refer to pure Na2CO3.
