Water treatment dosing formulas

Identifies substantive water-treatment dosing formulas and control values. Topic phrases are retained for discovery; enforcement requires a populated dose, concentration, feed rate, or process value, and high confidence also requires a treatment-plant asset, process, or control-tag reference.

Type: regex
Engine: boost_regex
Confidence: medium
Confidence justification: Medium confidence requires a populated engineering value rather than a water-treatment topic alone. High confidence adds plant/process context, reducing matches on public guidance and chemistry lessons.
Detection quality: Topic false positive
Jurisdictions: global
Regulations: GDPR
Data categories: security
Scope: wide
Risk rating: 10
Platform compatibility: Purview: Compatible, GCP DLP: Compatible, Macie: Compatible, Zscaler: Compatible, Palo Alto: Degraded, Netskope: Unsupported

Should match

water treatment dosing formula — Low-tier probe - dosing topic without populated engineering values
Chlorine dosage formula: target residual 0.8 mg/L and dose 2.4 mg/L — Medium-tier probe - populated treatment values without a plant asset
North water treatment plant dosing formula: dosing pump DP-04, coagulant dose 18.5 mg/L, SCADA tag AIT-204 — High-tier probe - populated dose with plant, pump, and control-tag detail

Should not match

unrelated generic text without domain phrases — No relevant topic phrases present
placeholder value 12345 — Random text should not match topic-specific regex
water treatment dosing — Generic word pair from old broad template should not match
The public drinking-water guide explains why utilities disinfect water. — Public guidance without a dosing formula or populated plant value
Training example: water treatment dosing formula for pump DP-04 at 18.5 mg/L — Explicit training content must not enforce

Known false positives

Public health guidance and chemistry material discuss chlorine, pH, coagulants, and water treatment without revealing a utility's operating values. Mitigation: Keep topic-only matches discovery-only and require a populated dose, concentration, or feed rate for enforcement.
Worked examples can contain plausible pump names, control tags, and dosing values. Mitigation: Reject explicit template, demo, tutorial, sample-data, and training-example framing from enforcing tiers.
