WATER TREATMENT CHEMICALS

Water treatment is a process for treating sewage or modern wastewater and converting it into more
acceptable form for a specific end-use. The end utilization of this treated water might be drinking,
mechanical water supply, water system, waterway stream support, water diversion or numerous
different uses, including being securely returned to nature. Water treatment expels contaminants and
undesirable parts, or diminishes their fixation with the goal that the water ends up noticeably fit for its
coveted end-utilize. WATER TREATMENT includes four fundamental procedures which are boiler water
treatment, cooling water treatment, water purification and treatment of wastewater effluent. This
operation involves both physical and chemical modification of waste water. The chemicals which are
employed for treating waste water are termed as waste water chemicals. Water Treatment Chemicals
have been classified mainly on the basis of their application areas:-

Boiler Water Chemicals

Industrial boilers and steam raising plant are used extensively in many commercial, manufacturing and
industrial processes. The main objective of boiler treatment chemicals is maintenance of boiler systems
so that it functions appropriately. The main factors hindering boiler operation are scale formation,
metallic corrosion, boiler water carryover and sludge deposition. Boiler water chemicals provide holistic
solution to these problems. These include single-shot multifunctional treatment products, scale and
corrosion inhibitors, oxygen scavengers, alkalinity builders, sludge conditioners, condensate line
treatments and more.

Cooling Water Treatment Chemicals

Water is utilized broadly as an exceptionally proficient coolant in numerous industries where cooling is
required. To guarantee such cooling frameworks are effectively kept up and work at ideal proficiency it
is essential that the right cooling water conditions are set up and after that kept up constantly. The
chemicals which help in accomplishing these conditions are termed as cooling tower chemicals.
Chemicals for cooling water treatment includes highly effective biodispersants, corrosion inhibitors for
both hard and soft water, and advanced multi-functional scale and corrosion inhibitor formulations,
oxidizing and non-oxidizing biocide to control microbial growth and alagae blooms in re-circulating
water.

Reverse Osmosis Chemicals

Reverse osmosis, regularly abbreviated as RO is a membrane filtration process that is used extensively
for the desalination and purification of water. RO chemicals make sure that reverse osmosis plants and
desalination plants are operated at peak execution. Advanced formulations of RO chemicals helps in
upgrading operational efficiency of RO membrane. It has turned out to be beneficial in optimizing
membrane life expectancy and in reducing total costs. RO membrane cleaners and detergents, scale
inhibitors and antiscalants, corrosion inhibitors, biocides, antifoulants, de-chlorinators and flocculants
are the chemicals listed under RO chemicals products.

Wastewater Treatment Chemicals

Waste water treatment chemicals mainly include coagulants and flocculants. Coagulants basically work
for essential settling of suspended solids in effluent water and flocculants cause secondary setlling of
particles. Alum (Ferric/Non-Ferric), Ferrous Sulfate, Ferric Chloride, PAC (Poly Aluminum Chloride) is
mainly used as coagulants. Flocculation is accomplished with Polyelectrolytes, for example,
Polyacrylamides (Anionic, Cationic and Non-ionic), Polyamine, PolyDADMAC and so on. Coagulants
Flocullants are used for clarification,floatation and sludge dewatering of pharma and biotech wastes.
