Specialized water treatment additives
Scaling & biofouling
Biofouling and scaling are challenges that can significantly affect the performance of membrane systems such as reverse osmosis or nanofiltration (RO or NF) membranes. This often results in operators having to temporarily interrupt ongoing operations for maintenance and cleaning. This period of inactivity is not only costly, but can also shorten the service life of the membranes.
Effective antiscalants against e.g. calcium carbonate, gypsum, calcium fluoride, barium sulphate, silicon dioxide, magnesium hydroxide
Against biofouling caused by metal oxides and excessive biological growth
