Product Notes

Instructions for use

  • Normal dosing rate 2–10 ppm (max. 10 ppm), depending
  • on the properties of the water to be treated. Ensure adequate mixing at chemical tank before dosing into the system.
  • Recommended operating temperatures: 50°–80°C.

    The typical dosage to feedwater ranges from a minimum of two parts per million (ppm) to a maximum of 10 ppm, depending on the quality of the seawater.

RXSOL Altreat 400 scale inhibitor is a polycarboxylic acid that controls inorganic scale formation. Small amounts of this copolymer, based on maleic acid, effectively handles large quantities of dissolved salts, thus preventing precipitation,settling and baking onto heat transfer surfaces.

Manufacturer and supplier of Anti-fouling agent, Antiscalant in Desalination plants.

During the distillation process, the formation of scale on heat transfer surfaces can significantly reduce heat transfer efficiency and increase operation and maintenance costs. Scale formation depends on temperature, concentration and pH, but generally takes the form of:

  • Calcium carbonate,
  • Magnesium hydroxide, and,
  • Calcium sulphate.

Conventional scale inhibition methods, such as the use of sulphuric acid and polyphosphates, have given rise to a new generation of antiscalants based on polycarboxylic acids.
