Total alkalinity, unlike pH, is a quantitative measurement. Total alkalinity is the measure of carbonate and bicarbonate present in the water. This is measured in units of parts per million(ppm), and in terms of calcium carbonate. [For example, ] 10ppm total alkalinity=10 lbs calcium carbonate in 1, 000, 000 lbs of pure water. 3, record 1, English, - total%20alkalinity

Contrairement au pH, l'alcalinité totale est une mesure quantitative. L'alcalinité totale correspond à la teneur de l'eau en carbonates et en bicarbonates de calcium. Cette quantité est exprimée en parties par million (ppm). Par exemple, une alcalinité totale de 10 ppm correspond à 10 lb de carbonates de calcium dans 1 000 000 lb d'eau pure. 2, record 1, French, - alcalinit%C3%A9%20totale

The earliest enzyme electrodes consisted of an electrochemical sensor, a semipermeable membrane and an intermediate layer containing the enzyme. This system required diffusion of the substrate through the membrane, there to react with the enzyme and so causing production or consumption of a material which was then measured by the electrochemical sensor.... Later enzyme electrodes dispensed with the semipermeable membrane and to attain more rapid response times used enzymes immobilised on easily accessible surfaces of inorganic supports. 3, record 6, English, - enzyme%20electrode

The PREPA facility produces 20 percent of the island's steam generated electricity. The plant uses nearly 1. 3 million gallons of water daily. This torrent is processed by four boilers enabling four steam units to produce 602 megawatts of power. However the Puerto Rican water company supplies water with a mineral concentration of 200 parts per million(ppm). Injecting such water at a high temperature directly into the boilers could destroy them immediately. So a demineralizing plant must purify the water using resin beds and employing control based on the measurement of such factors as conductivity pH soda and acid concentration. 1, record 7, English, - demineralizing%20plant
