BS EN 12678 discusses chemicals used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. BS EN 12678 is applicable to potassium peroxomonosulfate used for treatment of water intended for human consumption.
BS EN 12678 describes the characteristics of potassium peroxomonosulfate and specifies the requirements and the corresponding test methods for potassium peroxomonosulfate. BS EN 12678 gives information on its use in water treatment.
BS EN 12678 on chemicals used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption is useful for:
BS EN 12678 provides you with the minimum purity requirements for potassium peroxomonosulfate used for the treatment of water intended for human consumption. Limits are given for impurities commonly present in the product. Depending on the raw material and the manufacturing process other impurities may be present and, if so, this shall be notified to the user and when necessary to the relevant authorities.
BS EN 12678 provides you with a description of potassium peroxomonosulfate. BS EN 12678 provides you test method that includes sampling, analysis, determination of potassium peroxomonosulfate, and chemical parameters. BS EN 12678 guides on the labelling, transportation, and storage of the product so that the purity is not affected. BS EN 12678 helps to avoid potential adverse effects on the quality of water intended for human consumption
