the

feed off the iron in the water releasing the H2S. Anyway. the wells

water. soaker hoses dont stand up long to well water unless there are

good
filters on them. personal experience. Ingrid

Similar question here. How about hydrogen sulfide gas from well

Its
filtered out before entering home plumbing. Hose bibs are connected

Normally, I use the 2 standalone faucets outside for irrigation.
These
have
no filtration whatsoever. Any special notes on soaker hoses for this
situation?
H2S + 2CO2 - H2SO4 + C2 doesn't make any sense. Makes all other
statements questionable.
**Sulfur dioxide**
Flange head, we were talking about hydrogen sulfide, not sulfur dioxide.
You're an idiot. If you don't know the difference between sulfide and
sulfite, then don't respond to the question. H2S vs. SO2 (rotten eggs
vs. brimstone). What an imbecile.
Idiot. Moron. Get my drift?
No, I don't.
I started talking about sulfur dioxide because it was appropriate to
what I had to say. Not too complicated, is it?
Appropriate to what you had to say? How do you get from sulfides to
sulfites? Why don't you just start singing Ave Maria, it has about as
much to do with the conversation as sulfites. It certainly isn't
complicated to realize that you are cretin. And here you are trying to
rationalize your bullshit? You seem to be a waste of time and space.
What I was getting to was the H2S and the CO2 combination, CO2 drifted
into the thread some time ago.
In your ear, when? They are both volatile and leave solution as gases.
and water combine to form sulfurous acid, H2SO3. This
slowly oxidizes to form sulfuric acid, H2SO4. Sulfur dioxide can also
oxidize to sulfur trioxide, which will then combine with water to form
sulfuric acid.
Sulfate reducing bacteria can remove the oxygen from the acid.
H2SO4 - H2S + 2O2
The H2SO4 while in water will be ionized and may be associated with
other cations, calcium, magnesium, the like. So the above description
is only a rough description of what is going on.
In some other universe. We were talking about sulfides, H2S.
God, you are slow. OK. If you are 12 years old or younger, I forgive
you. If you are older, you have a lot of nerve wasting my time.
On other news fronts, the smoked spareribs were wonderful and and a big
hit. We are best buds with the family pets again:-)
