Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The objective of this project was to examine the ability of a small system to meet new corrosion control operational guidelines in Canada. This study was conducted in three parallel program areas: (a) use of community volunteers, (b) sampling at controlled municipal buildings, and (c) conducting a pilot-scale program. The study site was a community with an approximate population of 7000. The water quality of the treated water had a low alkalinity (<5 mg/L as CaCO3) and a target pH range of 7.0–7.5. The plant corrosion control program consisted of pH adjustment with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and the addition of an orthophosphate–polyphosphate blend at a dose of 1.0 mg/L (as product). From the volunteer sample sites, it was found that all collected water samples were below the Canadian health-based guideline for lead of 10 μg/L. For the municipal building sites, 20 consecutive 1 L samples were used to identify lead occurrence. Two sites exceeded 10 μg/L for some sequential samples, however only one site (publ...

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
