Determine the quantity of lime and soda ash required to soften 1 mgd of the following water. Plan to achieve a hardness of 40 mg/L as CaCO3. Note that an excess of 35 mg/L of lime (CaO) is required to achieve 40 mg/L as CaCO3. Assume a carbon dioxide concentration of 7.2 mg/L as CO2.

Cations                   mg/L                        Anions                    mg/L

Ca^+2                      53.0                          HCO3^-1             285.0

Mg^+2                     12.1                          SO4^-2                134.0

Na^+1                      12.3                          Cl^-1                    73.5

Fe^+3                       0                                 pH                         8.1
