Hereinafter, the flocculant injection support device and the flocculant injection support system of the embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of a water treatment system 1 including an injection support device (coagulant injection support device). In the first embodiment, the water treatment system 1 is referred to as a “water treatment system 1a”. The water treatment system 1a is not limited to a specific facility as long as the facility includes a device (solid-liquid separation device) that performs treatment using a flocculant on water. The water treatment system 1a is, for example, a water purification plant, a paper factory, or a food factory. In 1st Embodiment, the water treatment system 1a is a water purification plant as an example.

The water treatment system 1a includes a intake well 10, a landing well 20, a contact pond 30, a mixing basin 40, a flock formation basin 50, a sedimentation basin 60, a sand filtration ridge 70, a water distribution basin 80, and an adjustment unit. 90, a flocculant 100, and an injection support system 200 (coagulant injection support system). The intake well 10 is located most upstream with respect to the flow of water. The distribution reservoir 80 is located most downstream with respect to the flow of water.

The intake well 10 temporarily stores raw water.
The raw water from the intake well 10 is sent to the landing well 20. In the landing well 20, plants and earth and sand are settled and separated from the raw water.

The supernatant water of the landing well 20 is sent to the contact pond 30. In the contact pond 30, the water sent from the landing well 20 and the adsorbent are mixed. The adsorbent is, for example, activated carbon. In the contact pond 30, the adsorbent adsorbs the chromaticity component and the soluble component contained in the supernatant water of the landing well 20. The soluble component is, for example, a soluble organic substance.

The contact pond 30 is provided with a conductivity meter 31 and a water temperature meter 32. The conductivity meter 31 measures the conductivity of the supernatant water of the contact pond 30. The conductivity meter 31 transmits information representing the measurement result of the conductivity to the injection support system 200. The water thermometer 32 measures the temperature of the supernatant water of the contact pond 30. The water temperature gauge 32 transmits information representing the measurement result of the water temperature to the injection support system 200. The contact basin 30 includes a flow meter 33 in a pipe that leads to the mixing basin 40. The flow meter 33 measures the flow rate of water sent to the mixing basin 40 at a predetermined time. The flow meter 33 transmits information representing the flow measurement result to the injection support system 200. The water temperature meter 32 may measure the temperature of the water measured by the conductivity meter 31. The water temperature meter 32 may measure the temperature of the water whose flow rate is measured by the flow meter 33. When the conductivity of the mixing basin 40 varies depending on the addition rate of the flocculant 100, the conductivity meter 31 may be installed in the mixing basin 40.

The supernatant water of the contact basin 30 is sent to the mixing basin 40 (rapid stirring basin). In the mixing basin 40, the coagulant 100 is poured into water by the adjusting unit 90. In the mixing basin 40, the flocculant 100 may be poured into water manually by an operator of the water treatment system 1a.

The mixing basin 40 is provided with a mixing device 41 and a pH meter 42. The mixing device 41 mixes the water sent from the contact pond 30 and the flocculant 100. The mixing device 41 uses, for example, a rapid stirring device (flash mixer), a stirring device having a driving unit such as a motor, a stirring device without a driving unit (static mixer), or a circulating flow generated by a submersible pump. It is a stirring device. In the mixing basin 40, the charged state of the suspended matter (Suspended Solids) is neutralized by the flocculant 100. Due to the neutralization of the charged state, the suspended material aggregates. Suspended substances are, for example, earth and sand having a fine particle size, chromaticity components, soluble components, and algae. In the mixing basin 40, fine flocs are formed in the water by the stirring by the mixing device 41.

The pH meter 42 measures the pH value of water (logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration) immediately after the flocculant 100 is mixed. In the first embodiment, the pH meter 42 measures the pH value of the water in the mixing basin 40. The pH meter 42 transmits information representing the measurement result of the pH value to the injection support system 200. A pH adjusting agent may be injected into the contact basin 30 or the mixing basin 40.

Water containing fine flocs is sent from the mixing basin 40 to the floc formation pond 50. The flock formation pond 50 causes fine flocks contained in water to collide with each other to grow flocks.
The sedimentation basin 60 sediments flocs grown in water. The sedimentation basin 60 includes a turbidimeter 61 on a pipe that leads to the sand filtration building 70. The turbidimeter 61 measures the turbidity of the supernatant water sent from the sedimentation basin 60. The turbidimeter 61 transmits the measurement result of turbidity to the injection support system 200.

The water from the sedimentation basin 60 is sent to the sand filtration building 70. The sand filtration building 70 filters the water sent from the settling basin 60. The sand filtration building 70 has a column shape. The sand filtration building 70 may be a water tank having an opening. When the sand filtration building 70 has a pipe for supplying water, the pipe for supplying water may be packed with an adsorbent. The sand filtration building 70 may be a rectangular sand filtration pond.

The filtered water is sent from the sand filtration building 70 to the distribution reservoir 80. In the distributing reservoir 80, chlorine is injected into the water. Water disinfected with chlorine is distributed from the distribution reservoir 80. The distributed water is supplied to houses.

The adjustment unit 90 is a mechanism that can adjust the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100. Any mechanism that can adjust the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 may be used.
The adjustment unit 90 is, for example, a pump. The adjustment unit 90 injects the injection amount of the flocculant 100 determined by the injection support system 200 including an information processing apparatus or the like into the mixing basin 40. The adjustment unit 90 may inject the flocculant 100 having the injection amount or injection rate determined by the injection support system 200 into the mixing basin 40. The injection amount of the flocculant 100 is adjusted, for example, in units of liters. The injection rate of the flocculant 100 is expressed by the injection amount of the flocculant 100 per unit time and the flow rate measured by the flow meter 33. For example, the unit of the injection rate of the flocculant 100 is “liter / hour”. Note that the adjustment unit 90 may change the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 using an inverter or a solenoid valve.

The flocculant 100 is a drug charged to a positive charge. In addition, suspended substances and bubbles of water are charged with a negative charge. The flocculant 100 injected into the water agglomerates particles such as suspended substances contained in the water by neutralizing the charged state of the suspended substances in the water.

The flocculant 100 is, for example, an inorganic flocculant such as polyaluminum chloride (PAC: Poly-Aluminum Chloride), sulfuric acid band, ferric chloride, ferrous sulfate, polysilica iron. The flocculant 100 may be used in combination with a polymer flocculant. The polymer flocculant is, for example, a cationic polymer, an anionic polymer, or an amphoteric polymer.

The flocculant 100 may be used in combination with a pH adjuster. The pH adjuster can adjust the pH value of water until it is in a pH range that is suitable for aggregation. The pH adjusting agent may be an acidic adjusting agent or an alkaline adjusting agent. The acidic regulator is, for example, sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid. Examples of the alkaline adjusting agent are caustic soda and calcium hydroxide.

The injection support system 200 includes a flow ammeter 210 (SCD: Streaming Current Detector), a pH correction unit 220, a conductivity correction unit 230, a water temperature correction unit 240, an injection support device 250, and a presentation device 260. .

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration example of the flow ammeter 210. The flowing ammeter 210 is a measuring device having a sensor for measuring the flowing current value (SC value) of water. The measuring device may include other sensors that measure other than the flowing current value. The flow ammeter 210 includes a probe 211, a piston 212, and an electrode 213. Water in the mixing basin 40 is sent to the flow ammeter 210 by a water supply mechanism such as a pump or a water level difference. The water sent to the flow ammeter 210 may be returned to the mixing basin 40. Thereby, the flow ammeter 210 can enhance the mixing action in the mixing basin 40.

The interval between the probe 211 and the piston 212 is, for example, 0.1 mm. The piston 212 reciprocates in a space surrounded by the probe 211. The electrode 213-1 measures the flowing current of the water poured into the probe 211, and outputs a signal corresponding to the measured flowing current.
The flowing current of water is generated by the movement of the charged suspended matter that occurs as the piston 212 moves up and down. Flowing ammeter 210 outputs a flowing current value indicating a signal corresponding to the measured flowing current to injection support apparatus 250. The same applies to the electrode 213-2.

The flow ammeter 210 is, for example, a flow electrometer that continuously detects the charged state of the suspended matter. The flow ammeter 210 may be a zeta electrometer that intermittently detects the charge state of the suspended matter. The flowing current value increases or decreases according to the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100. The flow ammeter 210 continuously measures the flow current value of the water immediately after the flocculant 100 and the raw water are stirred and mixed. In the following, the flow ammeter 210 continuously measures the flow current value of the water in the mixing basin 40 and transmits it to the injection support device 250 based on a preset time period. The flow ammeter 210 may continuously measure the flow current value of the water at the outlet of the mixing basin 40 and the inlet of the flock formation basin 50. The flow ammeter 210 may transmit the flow current value of the water at the outlet of the mixing basin 40 or the inlet of the flock formation pond 50 to the injection support device 250 based on a preset time period.

Since the flowing current value is easily affected by the water quality parameter, it is corrected based on the water quality parameter. For example, the flowing current value is corrected by the pH correction unit 220 based on the measurement result of pH. For example, the flowing current value is corrected by the water temperature correction unit 240 based on the conductivity measurement result. For example, the flowing current value is corrected by the water temperature correction unit 240 based on the measurement result of the water temperature.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the relationship between the flowing current value and turbidity. The horizontal axis represents the flowing current value. The flowing current value changes according to the injection amount of the flocculant 100. The left vertical axis represents turbidity (NTU: Nephelometric Turbidity Unit). The unit of turbidity is not limited to NTU, but may be “degree” or “mg / L”. The right vertical axis represents the suction filtration time ratio (STR: Suction Time Ratio). An example of the relationship between the flowing current value and the turbidity is stored in the storage unit 253 in the form of table data, for example.

In FIG. 3, as the injection rate of the flocculant 100 in the mixing basin 40 increases, the flowing current value increases. As the flowing current value increases, the turbidity of water measured by the turbidimeter 61 decreases. The operational management value of turbidity at the outlet of the settling basin 60 is, for example, 1 degree (= 0.8 NTU) or less. When the turbidity is lower than the control value (reference value) and the suction filtration time ratio is the lowest, the load on the downstream sand filtration building 70 is reduced with respect to the flow of water. In this case, the water becomes the clearest overall. In FIG. 3, the water is clearest when the turbidity is lowest. The target value of the injection amount (injection rate) of the flocculant 100 is the injection amount (injection rate) at which water is clarified.

The control unit 252 acquires the measurement result of the turbidity measured by the turbidimeter 61 from the interface 251. The control unit 252 determines the injection amount or injection rate candidate of the flocculant 100 based on the measurement result of turbidity so that the flowing current value becomes the target value. The controller 252 injects the flocculant 100 until the turbidity measurement result reaches the turbidity threshold. The turbidity threshold is a turbidity determined in advance based on the result of the water quality test so that the water becomes the clearest. The control unit 252 may increase the target value of the flowing current value when the measurement result of the turbidity measured by the turbidimeter 61 exceeds the turbidity threshold.

The control unit 252 may acquire the measurement result of the suction filtration time ratio from the interface 251. The controller 252 determines a candidate for the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 based on the measurement result of the suction filtration time ratio so that the flowing current value becomes the target value. Candidates for the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 are presented to the presentation device 260.

The control unit 252 acquires, from the interface 251, the injection amount or injection rate selected by the operator of the water treatment system 1 a among the injection amount or injection rate candidates of the flocculant 100. The control unit 252 transmits the injection amount or injection rate selected by the operator of the water treatment system 1a to the adjustment unit 90. The controller 252 causes the adjusting unit 90 to inject the flocculant 100 having the injection amount or injection rate selected by the operator. For example, the control unit 252 injects the flocculant 100 having the injection amount or injection rate selected by the operator until the measurement result of the suction filtration time ratio reaches the STR threshold value. The STR threshold is a suction filtration time ratio determined in advance based on the result of the water quality test so that the water becomes the clearest.

The flowing current value is easily affected by water quality parameters. For this reason, the measured flowing current value is converted into the flowing current value in the standard state based on the water quality parameter. That is, the measured flowing current value is corrected based on the water quality parameter. Candidates for the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 are determined based on the corrected flow current value.

The standard state is, for example, a state where water is 25 degrees Celsius, pH 7.0, and conductivity 10 mS / m. The standard state may be defined by an operator of the water treatment system 1a. The operator of the water treatment system 1a may define the standard state based on the annual average value or the monthly average value of the raw water quality of the water treatment system 1a that is actually operated.

The pH correction unit 220 acquires the measurement result of the pH value from the pH meter 42. The pH correction unit 220 corrects the flowing current value measured by the flowing ammeter 210 based on the measurement result of the pH value.

The vertical axis represents the flowing current value. The flowing current value approaches the value 0 nonlinearly as the conductivity increases. That is, the absolute value of the flowing current value is smaller as the conductivity increases. Therefore, the sensitivity of the flow ammeter 210 is higher as the conductivity is smaller.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the relationship between the electrical conductivity expressed in logarithm and the flowing current value. The horizontal axis shows the conductivity expressed by logarithm. The vertical axis represents the flowing current value. An example of the relationship between the electrical conductivity and the flowing current value expressed in logarithm is stored in the storage unit 253 in the form of table data, for example. Since the sensitivity of the flow ammeter 210 is higher as the conductivity is smaller, the conductivity correction unit 230 corrects the flow current value measured by the flow ammeter 210 based on the measurement result of the conductivity expressed by logarithm. .

The relationship between the electrical conductivity and the flowing current value can be linearized using a logarithm as shown in Equation (2). In the conductivity expressed in logarithm and streaming current, a linear relationship of monotonically increasing slope is K _EC. The control unit 252 determines a correction value (hereinafter referred to as “EC correction value”) based on the measurement result of the conductivity (EC). The flowing current value is corrected based on the EC correction value. The control unit 252 determines the EC correction value based on Expression (2) indicating the relationship between the conductivity and the flowing current value.

The flowing current value is corrected based on the water temperature correction value. The control unit 252 determines the water temperature correction value based on the equation (3) indicating the relationship between the water temperature and the flowing current value.

ΔZ _t = K _t × (t _m −t) (3)

K _t (= ΔSCD / Δt) indicates a change amount (ΔSCD) of the flowing current value per change amount (Δt) of the water temperature. t _m represents the water temperature in the standard state. t indicates the measurement result of the water temperature. Operator of the water treatment system 1a, defines the value of K _t the water quality testing. Water temperature correction unit 240 adds the water temperature correction value [Delta] Z _t to flow current value measured by the streaming current meter 210.

Therefore, the corrected flowing current value is represented by the equation (4) based on the flowing current value measured by the flowing ammeter 210, the pH correction value ΔZ _pH , the EC correction value ΔZ _EC, and the water temperature correction value ΔZ _t. .

The presentation device 260 may present the target value of the injection amount of the flocculant 100 and a determination result indicating whether the flocculant 100 is excessive or insufficient to the operator by voice.

As described above, the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment include the correction unit (pH correction unit 220, water temperature correction unit 240, conductivity correction unit 230) and the control unit 252. The correction unit collects the water current collected from the water storage unit such as the mixing basin 40 into which the flocculant 100 is injected, or the water flowing current value collected from the upstream side of the water storage unit with respect to the water flow. Correction based on the water quality parameters. The control unit 252 determines a candidate for the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 based on the corrected flowing current value.
Thereby, the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can support the determination of the injection amount or the injection rate of the flocculant 100 even when the water quality parameter changes.

The conventional injection support system calculates the injection rate (injection amount) of the flocculant based on a simple relational expression for determining the injection rate of the flocculant. The conventional injection support system can perform feedforward control (FF control) for the injection of the flocculant.

Flow current meter and flow potential meter measure the electrical properties of the generated floc floc after adding a flocculant to the raw water of a water treatment system such as a water purification plant. The conventional injection support system can execute feedback control (FB control) for the injection of the flocculant so that the measured values of the flowing current and the flowing potential become target values.

In the conventional injection support system, the simple relational expression used for feedforward control is unchanged. For this reason, the conventional injection | pouring assistance system cannot follow the water quality fluctuation | variation of raw | natural water with age, or sudden fluctuation | variation of the water quality of raw | natural water. In the conventional injection support system, even when the turbidity does not change, the flocculant may be excessive or insufficient depending on the quality of the raw water. In a conventional injection support system, raw water is taken from a plurality of water sources, and the flow rate ratio is frequently changed. In the conventional injection support system, the operator has to re-determine the relational expression (correction expression) as appropriate using a jar test or the like. For this reason, the burden on the operator was heavy. In addition, it was difficult to inherit the skills of the operators.

Zeta potential is an index representing the aggregation state of particles. The zeta potential is the difference between the charged particle potential in water and the electrically neutral potential. When the value of the zeta potential approaches 0, the water becomes an electric atmosphere in which charge neutralization proceeds and the water tends to aggregate. In order to properly control the state of aggregation, the zeta potential is measured continuously. The zeta potential is difficult to measure continuously in a short time.

The flowing current value is an index instead of the zeta potential. The flowing current value is a value obtained by indirectly measuring the zeta potential. The flow ammeter is effective as a sensor that can continuously measure the aggregation state. In a flow ammeter, the piston reciprocates inside a probe with electrodes. The flow ammeter measures the generated current value. The distance between the probe and the piston is, for example, 0.1 mm. In a flow ammeter, the charge density becomes high, and the measurement range may be exceeded. When the flow ammeter is intended to measure water with a large number of particles, the measurement accuracy may decrease.

In the conventional injection support system, the flow ammeter measures the flow current value of water between the rapid agitation pond and the floc formation pond. In a conventional injection support system, the electrical conductivity meter measures the electrical conductivity of the landing well. The conventional injection support system adjusts the flow current value of water between the rapid agitation pond and the floc formation pond and the electric conductivity of the landing well by a PID controller. In the conventional injection support system, the injection amount is controlled by a pump.

In the conventional injection support system, the operator of the water treatment system had to obtain the relationship between the flowing current value and the water quality parameter in advance by actually conducting a water quality test. In the water quality test, it is necessary to set up a test system so as not to affect the actual operation of the water treatment plant and to define a correction formula for each water quality parameter or water source. For this reason, the water quality test takes adjustment time at the water purification plant. Another problem is that it is difficult to secure engineers with knowledge of water quality.

The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment does not need to bother the raw water quality test to determine the relational expression between the flowing current value and the water quality parameter. The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment does not need to construct a correction formula for each water quality parameter or water source. The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment does not have to set up a test system that does not affect the actual operation of the water purification plant. The injection support device 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can reduce the local adjustment time. The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 according to the first embodiment can reduce the initial cost related to the introduction of the injection support system 200 using the flowing current value. The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 according to the first embodiment can reduce the amount of the flocculant used even when it is difficult to secure an engineer who has knowledge about water quality. The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can reduce sludge generation and reduce sludge disposal costs.

The injection support device 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can appropriately control the injection of the flocculant 100 based on the injection rate of the flocculant 100. The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment can easily grasp the excess or deficiency of the flocculant 100 based on the flowing current value of water. The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment can easily grasp the excess or deficiency of the flocculant 100 by comparison with the target value of the flocculant 100. The operator of the water treatment system 1a of the first embodiment injects the flocculant 100 following the change in water quality without frequently performing jar tests for determining the amount of the flocculant 100 to be injected. Can do. The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can reduce the burden on the operator of the water treatment system 1a.

When the flocculant 100 is excessively injected, the unreacted flocculant 100 remains in the outlet water of the settling basin 60. When the flocculant 100 is excessively injected, the load of the adsorption process of the sand filtration building 70 is increased, and the frequency of cleaning the sand filtration building 70 is increased. Since the unreacted flocculant 100 is transparent in water, the operator cannot visually determine the presence or absence of the flocculant 100. For this reason, the flocculant 100 is easily injected excessively. Therefore, the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment perform not only the use of the flocculant 100 but also the contact basin 30 by injecting the flocculant 100 in the mixing basin 40 without excess or deficiency. The amount of activated carbon used can be reduced.

The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 according to the first embodiment can measure the balance between the charge of the suspended matter and the flocculant 100 as a flowing current value. Therefore, the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can maintain a stable quality of treated water following the water quality change even when the water quality change occurs. Injection support apparatus 250 and infusion support system 200 of the first embodiment can determine a proportional gain _{K p} of the PID control. The injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can determine a proportional gain for PID control.

Even when the turbidity of the outlet water of the settling basin 60 is increased due to a large variation in the quality of the raw water, the injection support device 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment are the target values of the flowing current values shown in FIG. By changing the turbidity, the turbidity of the outlet water of the settling basin 60 can be maintained below a certain value, and the injection control of the flocculant 100 can be continued.

The injection support device 250 and the injection support system 200 according to the first embodiment can acquire the flowing current value in the standard state without being affected by the change in the water quality by correcting the flowing current value based on the water quality parameter. Therefore, since the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the first embodiment can measure the charge state of the particles, the flocculant 100 can be injected according to the fluctuation of the quality of the raw water.

FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a second example of the configuration of the water treatment system 1 including the injection support apparatus 250. In the second embodiment, the water treatment system 1 is referred to as a “water treatment system 1b”. The contact pond 30 includes a conductivity meter 31, a water temperature meter 32, and a turbidity meter 34. The turbidimeter 34 may be provided in the landing well 20. The sedimentation basin 60 may not include the turbidimeter 61 shown in FIG.

The control unit 252 executes feedforward control (FF control). For example, the control unit 252 determines candidates for the injection rate of the flocculant 100 based on the water quality parameters of the raw water. The control unit 252 determines a candidate for the injection rate of the flocculant 100 to a value proportional to the turbidity of the raw water measured by the turbidimeter 34 (turbidity proportional method). The control unit 252 determines a candidate for the injection rate of the flocculant 100 to a value proportional to the flow rate measurement result by the flow meter 33 so that the injection rate of the flocculant 100 is constant (fixed injection rate method).

The control unit 252 executes feedback control (FB control). For example, the control unit 252 determines a candidate for the injection rate of the flocculant 100 to be output to the adjustment unit 90 based on the flowing current value measured by the flowing ammeter 210.

The control unit 252 injects the flocculant 100 to be output to the adjustment unit 90 based on the injection rate candidate of the flocculant 100 determined by the feedforward control and the injection rate candidate of the flocculant 100 determined by the feedback control. Determine the rate.

As described above, the injection support apparatus 250 and the injection support system 200 of the second embodiment determine candidates for the injection amount or injection rate of the flocculant 100 before the flocculant 100 is injected into the mixing basin 40. .
Thereby, the injection support device 250 and the injection support system 200 of the second embodiment can shorten the delay of the control time even when the water quality changes. By combining feedforward control and feedback control, an appropriate injection rate can be determined following water quality fluctuations.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of the relationship between conductivity and flowing current value. The horizontal axis indicates the conductivity. The vertical axis represents the flowing current value. The flowing current value is affected by the pH sensitivity characteristic of the flowing ammeter 210. The flowing current value is affected by the pH value which is one of the water quality parameters of the raw water. When an electrolyte such as baking soda is injected into the raw water, the conductivity of the raw water increases. When sodium bicarbonate is injected into the raw water, the pH value of the raw water increases. If sodium bicarbonate is further injected into the raw water, the pH value of the raw water becomes constant.

FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example of the relationship between the electrical conductivity expressed in logarithm and the corrected flowing current value. The horizontal axis represents the electrical conductivity expressed in logarithm. The vertical axis represents a value obtained by adding the pH correction value ΔZ _pH calculated using Equation (1) and the measured flowing current value. The value obtained by adding the pH correction value ΔZ _pH and the measured flowing current value and the conductivity expressed in logarithm have a monotonically increasing linear relationship whose slope is _KEC-pH . Based on the equation (8) indicating the relationship between the flowing current value corrected by the pH correction value and the conductivity, the control unit 252 determines the pH sensitivity characteristic of the flowing ammeter 210 and the measurement result of the conductivity (EC). A correction value based on this (hereinafter referred to as “ECpH correction value”) is determined.

ΔZ _EC−pH = K _EC−pH × l og (EC _m / EC) (8)

ΔZ _EC-pH represents an _{EC pH} correction value. K _EC-pH (= Δ (SCD + pH correction value) / Δl (g) (EC)) is the amount of change in the flow current value per logarithmic change in conductivity (Δl (g)). The change amount of the flowing current value (Δ (SCD + pH correction value)) in consideration of the pH sensitivity characteristic of the total 210 is shown. EC _m indicates the conductivity in the standard state. EC indicates the measurement result of conductivity. The operator of the water treatment system 1b determines the value of _KEC-pH by a water quality test. The conductivity correcting unit 230 adds the _{EC pH} correction value ΔZ _EC-pH to the flowing current value measured by the flowing ammeter 210.

The EC _t correction value is expressed by Equation (9).

ΔZ _EC−t = K _EC−t × lig (EC _m / EC _t ) (9)

ΔZ _EC-t represents an EC _t correction value. K _EC-t (= Δ (SCD + EC _t correction value) / Δl og (EC _t )) is a variation in flow current value per change in electric conductivity (Δl og (EC _t )) expressed in logarithm. The change amount of the flowing current value in consideration of the water temperature of the raw water (Δ (SCD + EC _t correction value)) is shown. EC _m indicates the conductivity in the standard state. EC _t indicates the measurement result of conductivity by the conductivity meter 31 in which the temperature compensation function is invalid. The operator of the water treatment system 1c determines the value of _KEC-t through a water quality test. The conductivity correcting unit 230 adds the EC _t correction value ΔZ _EC−t to the flowing current value measured by the flowing ammeter 210. The corrected flowing current value is expressed by equation (10).

Corrected flowing current value = measured flowing current value + ΔZ _pH + ΔZ _EC−t (10)
