Antiscalants

Improved membrane performance through reduced scaling

The narrow flow passage found in membrane elements accentuates scaling and fouling. The Tacelene Chem pretreatment program from Kimberlite Chemicals is designed to eliminate scale and reduce fouling in membrane systems, regardless of the feed water source.

  • Effectively controls scales including calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, strontium sulfate, calcium fluoride, iron, colloidal material, silica and other organic contaminants.
  • Compatible with most of the membranes
  • Products are NSF 60 certified from UL (Underwriter's Laboratory)
  • Products are test for LD 50 non-toxicity test by NTC

Kimberlite Chemicals formulates wide ranges of liquid antiscalant / dispersants for membrane separation systems. These formulations are designed to inhibit scale while also dispersing colloidal particles. The inhibition and dispersant properties help extend RO system run times, reduce cleaning frequencies and increase the overall productive life of the RO elements. The application of Tacelene Chem Antisclants may also eliminate the need for acid addition while maintaining desired recovery rates.

Dosage selection

e-water 5.0 scaling software package helps you:

  • Predict scale
  • Select product
  • Determine dosage
  • Maximize RO recovery
  • Model the impact of different recovery rates
  • Model the impact of acid dosing for both hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid 
  • Determine and view graphs of solubility limits
  • Determine and model safety factors
  • Calculate Langelier Saturation Index (LSI)

Benefits to You

  • Personnel safety (reduced need to handle sulfuric or hydrochloric acid)
  • Reduced cleaning and maintenance cost
  • Lower operating cost

RO systems operate at higher recovery rates due to reduced scale
