Flocon 230

Summary

Product Identification

Flocon® 230 is an antiscalant for Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems, specifically developed for challenging brackish RO feedwater.

Description

Flocon® 230 is designed to effectively control the deposition of inorganic scale-forming salts and particulate fouling on membrane surfaces. It is presented as a cost-effective alternative to phosphonate-based antiscalants.

Benefits

• Excellent scale inhibition for carbonate, sulfate, and fluoride scales.
• Superior dispersancy for iron, silica, organics, silt, and clay.
• Cost-effective performance compared to phosphonate-based antiscalants.
• Low phosphorus content (5 ppb at 3 ppm dosage).
• Neutralized for easier handling and transportation.
• NSF/ANSI Standard 60 certified.

Packaging

• Pail: 55 lb (25 kg)
• Drum: 500 lb (230 kg)

Consult a sales representative for availability.

Usage

Flocon® 230 is fully miscible with water. It can be applied undiluted or as a solution in permeate. A minimum dosing solution strength of 10% w/w is recommended. Continuous and proportional dosing relative to feedwater flow is advised to maintain the recommended dose level.

The required dose level depends on feedwater quality and the saturation indices of scale-forming species in the concentrated brine. BWA's Flodose® software can be used for scaling index calculations and optimizing system recovery. Dose level projections and recommendations are available upon request.

Consult a BWA Water Additives representative for optimal dosage recommendations for your specific system.
