MAKS 9650 SUGAR MILL BIOCIDE
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
MAKS 9650 is a broad spectrum bactericide and fungicide. Controls the growth of bacteria and fungi in sugar cane that convert to dextran, leading to a reduction in sucrose.
AREA OF USE
MAKS 9650 controls aerobic and anaerobic bacteria and fungi. It operates over a wide pH range during the washing and diffusion stages in sugar mills. It has been developed especially for the sugar extraction process from sugar beet and sugar cane.
Prevents lactic acid formation and sucrose conversion, which cause problems in the sugar process.
MAKS 9650 can also be used in industrial cooling systems applications for microorganism control.
FEATURES
Use in a wide pH range
Excellent bacterial growth control
Effective against thermophilic shrinkage of bacteria.
Especially effective on sulfate reducing bacteria.
Reduces losses due to microbiological activity.
Improves sucrose yield.
Low toxicity and non-foaming
Complies with the following regulations;
European sugar industry regulations
FDA regulations 21 CFR 173.73


DOSAGE
The specific dosage of MAKS 9650 varies depending on the amount of cane per day. The standard dosage is 10 ppm per day. If necessary, this can be increased up to a maximum of 20 ppm. The required amount increases if the cane mill is damaged by cold, poor weather conditions or delays between cutting and milling.
In sugar cane mills MAKS 9650 should be fed directly into the cane slurry. In this way, the treated slurry circulates to all shaft parts. The feeding location depends on the spindle design. Most of the time the dosage is divided between the slurry in the crusher and the slurry in the last spindle. The best feeding point is the slurry returning back to the shaft. The product should not be added to the maceration water.
Your BIMAKS representative will advise you on the optimum dosage required to ensure maximum program performance.
