Laboratory

Water Analysis: using a minimum of half a gallon (2 liters) of RO feedwater, this test provides the cation and anion data necessary to obtain an accurate and site specific antiscalant recommendation.

Avista Advisor Program: using a complete mineral analysis, this program supplies the user with detail ion saturation data, product selection, dosage, and usage information.

Foulant Identification: requires a membrane leaf which is examined to determine the nature of any foulants present and their effect on the membrane. Potential foulants can include scale, biological matter, metals, etc.

Filtration Study: requires a minimum of five gallons (20 liters) of feedwater to the multi-media or sand filter sent to Avista. From this sample, jar test procedures allow for optimum RoQuest coagulant /filter aid recommendation. Dosage determinations provide the most efficient and cost effective coagulation within the filter.

Particle Counts: using a minimum of a pint (0.5 liters) of filter feedwater, this test provides total particle data ranging from 2-50 µm.
