This question is a real boiler-maker, am I right? But seriously, I think the process pH is the one that's not a major factor. I mean, who cares about the acidity when you've got all those other nasty things to worry about?

I'm just here for the free donuts. Oh, the question? Uh, let's see... the oxygen content, obviously. It's like the bully of the boiler water world, always trying to pick a fight with the other factors.

Yeah, me too. I think the oxygen content is the troublemaker in boiler water corrosion.

Wait, wait, wait... is this a trick question? I'm going to go with the carbon dioxide content. That's the one factor that's always trying to sneak in and ruin our day, like a pesky little gremlin.

I agree, carbon dioxide content is definitely a major factor to watch out for.

Ah, the old boiler water corrosion question. I reckon it's got to be the operating pressure. I mean, who cares about the pH when you've got high-pressure steam blasting through the pipes?
