Product Description
With enriched industrial experience and knowledge, we are providing 101-SI RO Antiscalant Chemical. This chemical is generally demanded to prevent or slow-down mineral scale formation on the membrane surface. Our offered chemical also inhibits calcium carbonate scale up to a Calcium Carbonate Nucleation Index (CCNI) of 2.2. Customers can avail this 101-SI RO Antiscalant Chemical from us in several packaging options.
An RO antiscalant is a chemical thatprevents the formation of mineral scale on reverse osmosis (RO) membranes by inhibiting the precipitation of mineral salts.Common types includepolyacrylic acidsandphosphonates,which keep minerals in solution and prevent them from depositing on the membrane, thus maintaining membrane efficiency, extending its life, and reducing cleaning frequency.
What is Scale and Why is it a Problem?
-
Scale Formation:
In RO systems, as water is forced through the membrane, dissolved minerals are left behind in the concentrated brine.When these minerals reach their saturation point, they precipitate out of solution and form a hard deposit called scale.
-
Impact on RO Systems:
Scale deposits on the membrane surface block the flow of water (permeate flux decline), which significantly reduces the efficiency of the RO system.This leads to increased operating costs and can even force the system to shut down for cleaning.
