Full Description

This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of lead phases in lead service lines, factors affecting lead concentrations, speciation of lead in drinking water, and particulate versus soluble lead. The formation of lead corrosion products is presented including conditioning of new lead pipes, and solid phases in lead pipe scales. The stability of corrosion products is presented, along with thepure mineral phase - hydrocerussite, and thecorrosion products on lead pipes.
