Ammonium bisulfite is  soluble in water. It is noncombustible. It is corrosive to aluminum. It is a strong irritant to skin and mucous membranes. It is toxic by skin absorption.

This is most common oxygen scavengers used to effectively remove dissolved  OXYGEN from your feedwater. By the presence of dissolved oxygen in system , corrosion and pitting caused on metal surface. Removes dissolved oxygen , By acting as an oxygen scavenger.

Application

Oxygen scavenger is a class of chemicals added to react and remove oxygen in water to protect against oxygen induced corrosion. The use of Ammonium Bisulfite  as a chemical deoxygenator is economical within certain limitations imposed by the dissolved oxygen content. Ammonium Bisulfite is relied on as the sole means of oxygen removal. Generally, costs are balanced by removal of as much of the oxygen as feasible by mechanical means, e.g. deaerator and by using Ammonium Bisulfite to react with the residual oxygen.

To prevent corrosion and pitting it is desirable to feed the Ammonium Bisulfite.
