ABSTRACT Lowering solution pH slows the polymerization of silica and formation of silica scale. In batch systems, lowering the pH of approximately 200 ppm silica solutions prevents scale formation for over 300 h. Silica scale forms most quickly near pH 8. Solutions with pH 3.6–3.7 can maintain silica levels of 1,000–3,000 ppm for roughly 90 h. Bench-scale membrane testing showed that silica scale formation lag times of approximately 72 h were achievable after lowering the pH to 4.5–4.7, which might allow flushing of silica-laden solutions through, for example, flow reversal, before scale formation occurs during water treatment.
