Title: New Approach to On-Line Sodium Measurement, presented by David Gray, Mettler-Toledo Thornton Inc., at Electric Utility Chemistry Workshop, June 7-9, 2011, Champaign, Illinois

A New Approach to On-line Sodium Measurement David Gray, Mettler-Toledo Thornton, Inc. Sodium has been a critical measurement parameter for ensuring water treatment performance and purity for nearly four decades. Monitoring cation exchange performance and the purity of makeup water, steam and condensate has benefitted from measurement of this key parameter. Many refinements have been made to the ion-selective electrode method for on-line sodium measurement for these applications. Described here are yet further improvements to this technology including an unique integrated electrode system that measures both sodium and pH to assure proper reagent delivery. The system design minimizes reagent consumption and reduces maintenance requirements well below current practice. The new sodium system uses a particularly simple automatic calibration method and also provides the ability to measure grab samples easily. Its implementation with an operator interface common to other parameters including conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH and ORP makes it especially convenient for installation and operator training.
