Sometimes, the use of softened water seem to logically make more sense than the use of decarbonised water or dionised water, especially for cooling purpose. Yet, decarbonised/deionised water is used instead (for anode and cathode production, for example).
Can we have a bit of explanation in terms of applications/use between these three types of water? And when it makes more sense to use one rather than the other? Because their environmental footprint differs a lot.
Thank you.
