Innova’s Antiscalants are critical for protecting the boilers and cooling systems of Kerala’s energy-intensive food processing and hospitality sectors. They prevent the formation of hard mineral scale, which can act as an insulator and significantly increase fuel consumption. In a state committed to 100% renewable energy by 2040, preventing scale-induced energy waste is a key step toward achieving industrial sustainability.
Key Features & Technical Advantages for Kerala Plants:
- 1. Versatile Scale Control: Effectively inhibits scales
including Calcium Carbonate (up to LSI +3.0), Calcium Sulfate, Barium Sulfate,
and Strontium Sulfate in Kerala's local water conditions.
- 2. Membrane Compatibility: Fully compatible with all leading
RO, NF, and UF membranes and coagulants used in regional facilities.
- 3. Potable Water Safe: Classified and certified for use in
Kerala systems producing drinking (potable) water.
- 4. Foulant Dispersion: Maintains cleaner membrane surfaces by
actively dispersing particulate foulants and metal oxides (Iron & Aluminum).
- 5. Operational Flexibility: Effective over a wide pH range and
can be fed neat or diluted for Kerala industrial setups.
Science of Protection (How it Works):
Our antiscalants protect Kerala's water systems through three
primary mechanisms:
- Threshold Inhibition: Keeps supersaturated solutions of
sparingly soluble salts in suspension.
- Crystal Modification: Distorts crystal shapes at a
submicroscopic level, resulting in soft, non-adherent scale that doesn't stick
to membranes.
- Dispersion: Imparts a high anionic charge to crystals, keeping
them separated from each other and the membrane surface.
Application & Dosing Guidance for Kerala:
For maximum efficacy in Kerala based units, RO Antiscalant should
be injected prior to the static mixer or cartridge filter housing. For
potable applications, the typical dosage range is 2 to 6
mg/L. Dilution should be kept at a maximum of 10% using RO permeate or
DI water.
Strategic Benefits in Kerala:
- 1. Restores and prolongs expensive membrane life for Kerala
industries.
- 2. Maintains peak system rejection levels and output flow.
- 3. Global Standard Performance: Our formulation in
Kerala is equivalent to, or exceeds, the performance of
industry standards like Permatreat PC 191/510, Maxtreat 9001/9002/9004,
and Indion 8111.
