46、ility of any industrial process measurement. To realize the full potential of this opportunity requires extraordinary performance of mixing equipment, control valves, reagent delivery systems, flow meters, control system design, and controller tuning. This book is designed to cover all of the bases

47、but not get the user lost in the details. Since each of these topics could be a book in itself, the emphasis here is on cutting straight to the chase of concepts critical for a successful pH system. Key insights and rules of thumb are inserted to congeal principles and practices that address the ess

48、ential requirements of pH applications. The book should appeal to both the generalist and the specialist. This book is designed to bring together the chemist, control engineer, instrument technician, process engineer, and project manager to literally and figuratively put them on the same page.Chapte

49、r 1 The Essentials provides a concise overview of what makes pH applications unique. It covers the total system requirements and is designed for the widest possible audience. It uses an adventurous style and analogies that should help make this chapter interesting enough to read from start to finish. The other chapters follow up on the seeds planted here and are intended to be used more as a reference for the design of each part of a pH measurement and control system.Chapter 2 The Chemistry gets into the engineering units and the conversion of the abscissa of the titration curv
