Compatible with RO, NF, and UF membranes from all major manufacturers.
- Effective in retarding polymerization and precipitation of reactive and non-reactive silica.
- Effectively controls inorganic scales over a large concentration range.
- Efficacious for controlling aluminum, iron, and heavy metals.
- Protects membrane surface from deposition of colloidal foulants
- Liquid formulation is safe and easy to use.
- NSF/ANSI 60
Application
Pretreat Plus®-3100 most ideally should be injected into the feed-stream prior to the static mixer and the cartridge filter. Effective pH range is 3 –12. If frozen, may be thawed and mixed before use. Stability is excellent, but best used within 12 months.
Dosage
In the useful dosage range of 1-15 ppm, control of a wide range of inorganic scales at up to 100 x saturation values is possible. By monitoring the concentrate stream and trend charts, optimal dosage can be achieved for the control of scales including that from calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, strontium sulfate, iron hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, and silica.
