Abstract

A method for detecting change in the foam forming characteristic of an input stream of an aqueous solution which continuously samples the input stream by taking a series of discrete, independent measurements. The method relies on an acoustic sensor to measure foam height within a column. A sample of the input stream is introduced into the column, and aerated to produce foam. The height of the column of foam is then measured using the acoustic sensor, which is correlated with the concentration of foam forming chemical.
