The surface water with 6000 m³/d of flow rate will be treated for hardness removal using lime-soda softening which involves increasing the pH above 10 using slake lime (Ca(OH)2 or portlandite) and adding calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) salt. calculate daily amount of Ca(OH)2 and Ca(HCO3)2 salts required to obtain hardness removal by at least 90%.
