Can deoxidizers remove oxygen from water

Yes, deoxidizers can be used to remove oxygen from water. Deoxidizer is a chemical substance that can react with oxygen in water and convert it into other forms to achieve the purpose of deoxygenation.

Common deoxidizers include sulfites (such as sodium sulfite) and ferrous sulfate. After these chemicals dissolve in water, they react with oxygen to generate corresponding compounds, thereby reducing the oxygen content in the water.

Deoxidizers are commonly used in fields such as water treatment, sewage treatment, and boiler water treatment. In the process of sewage treatment, deoxidizers can be used to reduce dissolved oxygen in wastewater, prevent the inhibitory effect of oxygen on microorganisms, and improve treatment efficiency. In boiler water treatment, deoxidizers can reduce the oxygen content in the water and prevent corrosion and oxygen corrosion of boiler components.

It should be noted that when using deoxidizers, it is necessary to follow the correct dosage and method, and relevant safety operating procedures to ensure safety and effectiveness. In addition, deoxidizers may also have an impact on other components in the water body, so in practical applications, it is necessary to comprehensively consider water quality and specific situations for selection and control.
