Work undertaken by Ontario Hydro, Toronto, to determine levels of feedwater impurities, including corrosion products and condenser cooling water inleakage contaminants, is reviewed. Corrosion product measurement using a grab method gave some useful data but was found to be too labor-intensive. Continuous analysis of corrosion products, in conjunction with a valveless capillary sampler, is now being evaluated as a method. Ion chromatography appears to be a promising technique to determine anions in feedwater. Tests to adapt such an instrument for continuous analysis are planned.

The reassessment of high-purity water is a never-ending process. Although the best available instrumentation is used, it is not always good enough when component failures are attributed to infinitesimal impurities in the water. This paper describes the necessary technology and personnel requirements for implementing a successful water quality control program.
