Lemma 29.54.6. Let X be a scheme such that every quasi-compact open has finitely many irreducible components. Let Z_ i \subset X, i \in I be the irreducible components of X endowed with the reduced induced structure. Let Z_ i^\nu \to Z_ i be the normalization. Then \coprod _{i \in I} Z_ i^\nu \to X is the normalization of X.
Proof. We may assume X is reduced, see Lemma 29.54.2. Then the lemma follows either from the local description in Lemma 29.54.3 or from Lemma 29.54.5 part (3) because \coprod Z_ i \to X is integral and locally birational (as X is reduced and has locally finitely many irreducible components). \square
