Abstract
Provided is a method for controlling a pH to a neutral range (pH 6 to 8) by adding an alkali or an acid to decarbonated water, including controlling the amount of the alkali or the acid added using an electrical conductivity meter. The decarbonated water is, for example, water obtained by decarbonating industrial water or groundwater so that the concentration of carbonic acid is 10 ppm or less. The method may further have a step of producing pure water by RO treatment of the decarbonated water with a pH adjusted to 6 to 8 by the pH control.
