RO Membrane Antiscalant - ROCscale 110

Advanced Reverse Osmosis Technology

RO Membrane Antiscalant - ROCscale 110 is an excellent RO membrane antiscalant, it reduces the risk of scaling and eliminates the need to use hazardous acids, at the same time maintaining efficient plant operation with the highest practical conversion rate. It is a more costeffective solution for membrane protection than pH control or ion exchange softening.

Scale inhibition processes have been studied in detail. From this work, it has been determined that ‘Threshold’ is the key mechanism in the prevention of scale formation in membrane systems.

ROCscale 110 is a super-threshold agent able to stabilise a wide range of supersaturated salt solutions, thereby preventing precipitation on the membrane surface. This property allows engineers to design RO systems to successfully operate at higher recoveries than systems that do not utilise this technology. Equipment manufacturers that design systems to operate at higher recoveries have a significant advantage over their competitors because they can offer the end user benefits such as:

• Improved cost effectiveness.
• Less feedwater required.
• Less concentrate for disposal.
• Less chemicals used.

Product Benefits

• Highly effective antiscalant across a broad spectrum of water types.
• Minimises scaling and reduces the frequency of membrane cleaning.
• Reduces and in many cases eliminates the need for acid addition.
• Compatible with all membrane types.
• Effective in preventing iron and manganese fouling.
• More stable and more effective than sodium hexametaphosphate.
• Enables systems to work at enhanced rates of recovery.
