    Because there are a lot of alkaline stones in the water pipes.

    Especially sewers like toilets or restrooms.

    All that exists is carbonate.

    Or sulfates.

    of calcified substances.

    Acid-base neutralization, on the other hand, can break down those insoluble stones and then unclog the sewer.

    However, for congestion such as kitchens, which are caused by a large amount of grease, it is necessary to use alkaline substances, which can break down oil.

    Thanks for the invite! There is no harm in cleaning the water pipes and adding edible grade citric acid. Citric acid has a wide range of uses.

    70% of citric acid production is used as a flavoring agent in food manufacturing. Citric acid is mainly used as an acidic flavoring agent in soft drinks, fruit juices, jams, fruit sugars and canned foods, and can also be used as an antioxidant in edible oils. Anhydrous citric acid is used in large quantities in solid beverages.

    Citric acid salts such as calcium citrate and ferric citrate are fortifiers that require the addition of calcium and iron ions in some foods.

    At the beginning of the water posture, the water pipe is washed with clean water twice to remove citric acid

    After the first cleaning, the staff opens the main valve and starts the second cleaning. "The first time I used lemonade, now I use tap water to completely remove the citric acid that remains in the water pipes. The staff said that it is usually washed twice with clean water, and the water flowing out of the water pipe has no sour smell before it is finished.

    Even if the citric acid water is not fully drained, there is no doubt that the citric acid in the water pipe has been greatly reduced through the washing of a lot of clean water. Shui Zichu staff said.

    OK.

    Because the juice in lemons is rich in acidic substances, it is called citric weak acid.

    This substance will be combined with calcium carbonate in limescale after heating.

    A reaction occurs, which causes the limescale to fall off.

    Lemonade. How to remove limescale: Put the lemon slices into a kettle (the thinner the better, the purpose is to release the citric acid as much as possible) The water is boiled and boiled for about 5 minutes, and after boiling, let the lemon soak in water for 2 minutes to remove.

    Use a citric acid descaler.

    Precautions: 1. Citric acid descaler is a high-concentration food additive.

    Do not eat directly, dilute with water before use.

    2. Citric acid is generally only used to remove scale, and has no cleaning effect on scorch marks caused by heat.

    3. Preservation of citric acid descaler should be placed in a cool and dry place, storage time may be too long, there may be slight hardening and agglomeration, it is normal, do not worry.

    4. When using citric acid descaler, if it accidentally gets into the eyes, rinse it with water immediately.

    I'm cleaning up limescale from large hot water pipes.

    Citric acid is an organic acid produced by microbial fermentation, which is widely used in the production of detergents, and its own specificity and chelation play a positive role. Citric acid has good performance in the actual use process, mainly in terms of safety, the raw materials for the preparation of citric acid are from the grain, which is a safe food-grade microorganism. Citric acid has little corrosion to metal, is a safe cleaning agent, because citric acid does not lead Changpeng contains Cl-, so it will not cause stress corrosion of equipment, it can complex Fe3+, weaken Fe3+ to promote corrosion.

    Citric acid descaler is suitable for a variety of household water storage appliances and has a good descaling effect.

    I'm sure everyone has more or less heard of citric acid, but not much about it. In fact, citric acid is still widely used as an important organic acid, among which we are most familiar with it as a natural preservative and food additive. Citric acid is colorless crystals, has no odor, has a strong sour taste, and is easily soluble in water.

    The fruits we eat in our daily life, such as lemons, citrus, pineapples and other fruits, will have natural citric acid, and even in the bones, muscles, and blood of animals. Therefore, natural citric acid is widely distributed in nature. So how is the citric acid neutralization we usually see made?

    It is usually made by fermentation of sugar-containing substances such as granulated sugar, molasses, starch, grapes, etc., and is artificially synthesized citric acid.

    Citric acid is an edible acid that can be added to foods to make food taste better and increase appetite, compared to sauces, drinks, canned foods and candies. Therefore, citric acid is harmless to the human body, but eating some things with citric acid for a long time can easily lead to hypocalcemia and duodenal cancer, because citric acid will promote the excretion and deposition of calcium in the body. Therefore, if the children in the family like and often eat some sour candy, jam and other foods, they should drink more milk, fish soup and other foods to supplement calcium.

    Therefore, judging from the above knowledge about citric acid, it is harmless to the human body to use citric acid as a cleaning and enlightenment key agent. So what role does citric acid play in pipe cleaning? First of all, citric acid has very little corrosion on metal, and can dissolve iron oxide and copper oxide, which is very obvious for the cleaning effect of subtle rust.

    At present, most of the tap water pipes used in Chinese households are plastic pipes, and a small number of old communities use iron pipes or galvanized pipes, which will produce a lot of rust after accumulation of use, so it is very good to clean with citric acid.

    For water pipes in the home, citric acid is pre-diluted during cleaning, and the inner wall of the pipe is cleaned with a citric acid solution. Citric acid is used to soften the scale, combined with the CACS spiral pulse cleaning technology, the pulse of the water vapor mixed spiral is generated to flush the pipeline in an all-round way, so that the old scale in the water pipe is peeled off and off, which is safe and efficient, and makes the pipeline smooth and clean.

    In short, the citric acid used in cleaning the water pipe is food-grade citric acid, and it will be diluted with water during the actual cleaning process, which will not cause adverse effects on the water pipe and human health.

    Citric acidHot water is better for scale removal.

    Lemon containsCitric acid, which is a weak acid and is non-toxic. The main component of scale is carbonate, and under high temperature conditions, citric acid reacts with it, and the scale will be dissolved in acid.

    A lemon contains a small amount of citric acid, so the removal of stubborn limescale is not ideal. In the case of sufficient citric acid content, the higher the temperature, the greater the solubility of the scale.

    Therefore, it is better to use citric acid to remove limescale or use hot water, if you want to achieve a quick effect, you can slice the lemon and put it directly into the scale utensils to heat and boil, so that the effect of removing limescale is more obvious.
