Data on the trend of corrosivity and scale formation potential of Shiraz groundwater drinking water resources during 2001–2007

The aim of this study was to evaluate the corrosivity and scale formation potential of groundwater drinking water resources for the time period of 2001 to 2007 in Shiraz, Iran. Chemical parameters including total alkalinity, EC, pH, temperature, and TDS of ground water resources were analyzed. Langelier saturation indices (LSI) and Ryznar stability indices (RSI) were utilized to determine the potential for corrosivity and scale formation. The data showed that Shiraz groundwater potable water resources tended more likely towards the scale formation potential.
