Abstract

TITLE OF THE INVENTION: SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING AQUATIC TOTAL ALKALINITY The aquatic total alkalinity measuring system (100) comprises:- a pH probe (105) configured to measure pH at the boundary layer of a body of water,- a probe controller (115), configured to sequentially activate and deactivate, or connect and disconnect, the pH probe,- a pH measurement variation detection device (120), configured to detect a pH measurement variation in a sequence of pH probe measurements, and- an aquatic total alkalinity value determination device (125), configured to determine an aquatic total alkalinity value of the body of water based on the detected pH measurement variation and- preferably a total alkalinity control unit,configured to increase or decrease the total alkalinity of the water body based on the measured total alkalinity value and a target total alkalinity value.
