Antiscalant

Antiscalants are a vital component of our chemical solutions, designed to address the challenges of scaling in water treatment systems. we pride ourselves on formulating advanced antiscalants that push the boundaries of scale prevention. Our dedicated research and development teams work tirelessly to create formulations that are not only effective but also tailored to meet the unique challenges of various industries.

Antiscalant is a pretreatment water additive for reverse osmosis system that is highly effective in preventing the membranes from scaling. Before the feed water enters the reverse osmosis membrane, an antiscalant is injected into the water and sent the through the system. The chemicals creates a time delay between the bicarbonate and the calcium magnesium. The delay allows the water to pass through the membrane before any chemical reaction, in which scale can form, occurs. This results is scale not forming as the water is being purified by the RO.

Antiscalant chemical is used to process very poor quality feed water at very high rates of recovery. When used properly, Antiscalant extends the time between membrane cleanings from a few weeks to years in some cases. Without Antiscalant, ro membrane systems would not be as successful serving the water treatment industry.
