Objectives : Determination of reaction order (n) and rate constants (k) of the CaCO<sub>3</sub> scale formation reaction that was accelerated by the HVI (high voltage impulse) induction.Methods : HVI was inducted to the synthetic solution containing 2.5 mM of Ca<sup>2+</sup> ion at different temperatures of 25, 40, 60℃. The concentration of Ca<sup>2+</sup> ion has been monitored as voltages of the HVI increased from 0 to 5, 10, 15 kV. Reaction order and the rate constants of the CaCO<sub>3</sub> formation reaction were determined with the experimental dataset of Ca<sup>2+</sup> concentration vs. time plots.Results and Discussion : The CaCO<sub>3</sub> formation was determined to follow two-molecules 2<sup>nd</sup> order reaction. The reaction rate constant, k increased as temperature and the applied voltages of HVI increased. The rate constant, k at 25℃ and 15 kV of HVI was 8.2×10<sup>-3</sup> L/(mmol･hr), which was 2.7 times greater than the k of the control at 25℃, 3.0×10<sup>-3</sup> L/(mmol･hr).Conclusions : The reaction of CaCO<sub>3</sub> formation was accelerated by HVI as the applied voltages of HVI increased, indicating that the HVI could be used as an alternative desalting technology for scale control.

In contrast to the adjustment of single plates a block adjustment is a simultaneous determination of all unknowns associated with many overlapping plates (star positions and plate constants etc. ) by one large adjustment. This plate overlap technique was introduced by Eichhorn and reviewed by Googe et. al. The author now has developed a set of computer programmes which allows the adjustment of any set of contemporaneous overlapping plates. There is in principle no limit for the number of plates, the number of stars, the number of individual plate constants for each plate, and for the overlapping factor.
