AWC-A-106

Summary

Product identification

• Product name: AWC® A-106
• Product type: Membrane Antiscalant/Antifoulant

Advantages

• Broad spectrum antiscalant/antifoulant designed to inhibit inorganic scale formation and disperse natural organic matter (NOM) in membrane separation processes.
• Inhibits calcium carbonate scale up to a Calcium Carbonate Nucleation Index (CCNI) of 2.2.
• Effectively inhibits formation of calcium sulfate, calcium fluoride, barium sulfate, strontium sulfate and silica.
• Stabilizes metal ions to prevent metal oxides precipitation and disperses existing metal oxides/hydroxides, silts/clays and colloidal silica.
• Approved for use by all major membrane manufacturers.
• Environmentally compatible, especially where discharge of waste into the environment is a concern.
• Certified by NSF to NSF/ANSI Standard 60.

Typical Properties

• Appearance: Clear light yellow to amber liquid
• Odor: Characteristic
• Solubility in water: Complete
• pH (as is) @ 25˚C: 2 - 5
• Specific Gravity: 1.10 ± 0.05

Chemical Feeding and Control

• Normally fed continuously prior to the final cartridge filter.
• Should be injected by chemical dosing pump from a dilution tank or directly from the drum to the feedwater line.
• The amount of AWC A-106 required to inhibit scale formation depends on the quality of feed water and operational parameters of the membrane system.
• An AWC technical representative will provide specific control range and approximate dosage rate for your system.

Safety & Handling

• Store in a cool, dry place.
• Handle with care and avoid contact with eyes and prolonged or repeated contact with skin.
• For more information, see the Safety Data Sheet provided with this product.

Packaging

• 5 gallon pails
• 55 gallon non-returnable plastic drums
• 275 gallon totes
• Bulk shipments
