Special Antiscalant for Reclaimed Water

Special Antiscalant for Reclaimed Water

Basic Information

  • Product Name: Special Antiscalant for Reclaimed Water
  • Catalog: ECO-RO-003
  • Applications: Reverse osmosis systems.

Reclaimed water, a sustainable alternative to freshwater, often presents significant challenges in water treatment due to the propensity for scaling. Our special antiscalant designed for reclaimed water is crucial for maintaining the efficiency and longevity of reverse osmosis (RO) systems.

Density (25℃, g/cm3)1.10±0.05

Features

  • Effective Scaling Control: It excels in controlling scaling from calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and iron oxide, which are common in reclaimed water. By inhibiting these deposits, it prevents blockages and fouling in RO membranes, thus extending cleaning cycles and reducing maintenance requirements. The product is effective across a broad range of concentrations, maintaining an LSI (Langelier saturation index) value of 3.0 without the need for acidic solutions.
  • Non-Reactive with Key Compounds: An important feature of this antiscalant is its non-reactivity with iron, aluminum oxides, and silicon compounds, which can otherwise form insoluble precipitates.

Applications

  • By controlling scaling, the antiscalant enhances membrane efficiency and extends operational periods between cleaning cycles, making it ideal for large-scale and industrial water treatment applications.
  • The primary application of this antiscalant is in reverse osmosis systems where reclaimed water is treated. ECO-RO-002 performs efficiently in various water conditions and with different membrane types, including CA (cellulose acetate), TFC (thin-film composite), nanofiltration, and ultrafiltration membranes.

Usage Instructions

  • Injection: For optimal performance, the antiscalant should be added before the security filter in the treatment system. The preparation of the solution requires thorough mixing for 15-20 minutes to achieve uniformity.
  • Maintenance: Regular cleaning of the dosing tank is necessary to prevent bacterial growth and ensure the continued effectiveness of the antiscalant.
  • pH Versatility: The antiscalant is effective in a wide pH range from 5 to 10, accommodating the typical variations found in reclaimed water.

Packaging and Storage

  • Packaging: Typically packaged in 20kg, 25kg plastic drums.
  • Storage: Stored in cool, dry conditions away from direct sunlight.
  • Shelf Life: 24 months.

The ability of our special antiscalant for reclaimed water to control mineral deposition, coupled with its compatibility with a wide range of membrane types and pH ranges, makes it a versatile and reliable solution for maintaining system efficiency and extending membrane life.
