A pH-3.3 stream isn't a corner case — it's roughly 5,000x more acidic than neutral, and federal pretreatment rules prohibit discharge below pH 5.0 without engineered design, which is why the case study pairs a 316-stainless impeller mixer with a closed-loop system rather than a coated mild-steel unit and manual dosing.
