 Stock Solution HELP Screen
The goal of this guideline is to help you "Prepare a Stock Solution"
Table 1: Determining the concentration of the stock solutions
To use Table 1, FIRST determine how much raw water you will be adding to each jar. For example, if you are using 2,000 mL jars and conducting a
conventional jar test, you will typically be adding 2,000 mL to each jar. SECOND, consider the chemical dosages that are to be added to each jar.
For example, you may want the alum dosage to increase by 10 mg/L in each jar. THIRD, identify the stock solution concentration (%) that you need
to prepare and transfer this information to Table 3 below.

Table 1
How much raw water are you going to put in each jar? 2000 mL
How much do you want the dosage (mg/L) Concentration of the stock
to change for each milliliter (mL) of stock solution solution that you need to prepare
that you add to a jar? (%) (Mg/L)
0.05 0.01 100
0.25 0.05 500
0.50 0.1 1000
1.00 0.2 2000
2.50 0.5 5000
5.00 1.0 10000
10.00 2.0 20000
15.00 3.0 30000
20.00 4.0 40000

0.00 0

The following equation is used to calculate the Stock Solution Concentration in Table 1:
Stock Solution Concentration (%) =
Desired Dosage (mg/L) x Volume of Raw Water (mL)
Amount of Stock Solution added to each jar (1 mL) x 10,000 (mg/L to % conversion factor)
Table 2: Determining the product strength of liquid chemicals
To determine how much liquid chemical you must use to prepare the stock solution, you must first determine the product strength. Product strength
is the actual (reactive) chemical that is contained in each gallon of liquid. To determine the product strength, you must know the product specific
gravity and percent concentration. For example, liquid alum has a product specific gravity of 1.35 and a percent concentration of about 48 %.
Product specific gravity and percent concentration can be determined from the product supplier and product information sources such as MSDS.
Once the product specific gravity and percent concentration are known, Table 2 can be used to determine the product strength.

Table 3: Making the stock solution

Step 1 - Select desired stock solution concentration from Table 1 above

Step 2 - Determine amount of product to add to flask of indicated size

If product is a DRY

If product is LIQUID
Parameter Coagulant Other Chemical 1 Other Chemical 2
Flask size (mL)
Product Strength, lb/gal
Volume to add to flask, mL 0.0 0.0 0.0
The following equation is used to determine the product volume:
Product volume (mL) = (% solution) x (flask volume, mL) x (8.34 lb/gal)
100 x (product strength, lb/gal)

NOTE:
You will need to enter the data for each walking-beam mixer
and then tranfer the resulting G value to the appropriate Return to Jar Settings HELP Screen
box on the JarSettingsHELP screen. For example,
if the plant has three-stage flocculation, the table will
need to be filled out once for each stage.
