Q » What is the Langelier Saturation Index (LSI)?
03 Nov, 2025
A » The Langelier Saturation Index (LSI) is a calculated number used to predict the calcium carbonate stability of water, indicating if water will precipitate, dissolve, or be in equilibrium with calcium carbonate. It assists in determining the corrosive or scaling potential of water, crucial for water treatment processes. A positive LSI suggests scaling potential, while a negative value indicates corrosive water, requiring adjustment for optimal water system performance.
