MAKS 412 REVERSE OSMOSIS ANTISCALANT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MAKS 412 is super-threshold microorganism control agent able to stabilize a wide range of supersaturated salt solutions and prevent biofilm growth.
PRINCIPLE USES
MAKS 412 is one of the principal antiscalant and excellent control of microbiological growth used by the membrane industry. For many years MAKS 412 has found application as an antiscalant, antifoulant and microorganism control agent in membrane systems using a wide selection of brackish, high salinity process, effluent feed-waters and landfill leaching.
PRODUCT BENEFITS
- Includes broad spectrum, non-oxidizing microorganism control agent to prevent biofilm growth on membrane surfaces.
- Highly effective antiscalant across a broad spectrum of waters
- Inhibits common scales (Calcium carbonate/Sulphate, Calcium Phosphate, Barium/Strontium Sulphate, Silica, Iron/Manganese)
- Effective at LSI up to + 3.0
- Minimizes scaling and reduces the frequency of membrane cleaning
- Will reduce, and usually replace the need for acid addition
- Low dose rate gives a cost effective application
- Compatible with all membrane types
- Enables systems to work at enhanced rates of recovery
- Extensive portfolio of toxicological and environmental data available.
DOSAGE & FEEDING
The BIMAKS computer package will define the optimum chemical requirement for any given water quality. In calculating dosage rates, membrane manufacturer’s limits, product capability, operating parameters and feed water quality are all considered.
All calculations are made on the concentrated reject brine and utilize the predicted Langelier Saturation Index, or the Stiff and Davis Index where seawater and high salinity water is in use. Calcium, barium and strontium sulfate solubility’s are also calculated as is the dose of MAKS 412.
Your BIMAKS representative will recommend the optimum dosage necessary to ensure maximum program performance according to your specific system parameters.
MAKS 412 needs to be fed continuously to the feed water. Dosing of the neat product is preferable.
MATERIALS: Storage tanks, piping and feeding equipment for MAKS 412 should be constructed of PE, PVC, PTFE or stainless steel. Direct contact of the neat product should be avoided with aluminum, brass, carbon steel and nickel.
HANDLING-STORAGE-SHIPPING
As a standard precaution with all chemicals we recommend the use of personal protective equipments such as goggles and rubber gloves when handling. Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet as the only official source of Environmental and Safety information.
MAKS 412 can be stored for at least 24 months from date of shipping if kept in its original, unopened container and under normal warehouse conditions. Protect from freezing and from exposure to high temperature.
MAKS 412 is available in non-returnable containers of different sizes.
APPLICATION METHOD AND QUANTITY
The dosage quantity of the product changes according to the operating conditions and water chemistry of the system. BIMAKS representative will propose the appropriate dosage quantity to ensure maximum conditioning performance based on the distributed system parameters.
