A water test may name the contaminant, but it does not always reveal the form in which that contaminant exists—and that distinction can affect both measurement and treatment.
In this episode of the Water Quality Association Podcast, Dr. Joshua Mertz, director of research and development at LaMotte Company, explains the hidden chemistry of lead, iron and manganese. Selected excerpts from a recent WQA webinar explore why detecting lead is only the beginning of the treatment question, and what the Flint water crisis demonstrates about changes in water chemistry.
