Conductivity is a measure of a solution's ability to conduct electricity, as measured in Siemens per meter (S/m).
This page is under development, please add background info:
- Info about regulations
- Info about ecological or human health impacts
- Advocacy leverage points
- Constraints we're working within: cost, complexity, sensitivity, time
