Traditional inorganic coagulant for the clarification of water and effluents. It promotes the agglomeration of suspended particles and colloids for subsequent sedimentation or filtration. It is one of the highest-turnover raw materials in treatment plants due to its cost-performance ratio.
Butyl Glycol
Glycol ether with excellent coupling power between water and organic solvents. It is a classic component of concentrated degreasers and multi-purpose cleaners, and acts as a tail solvent in water-based paints, improving film formation. Its dual affinity makes it highly efficient in industrial cleaning formulations.
Ferric Chloride
Iron-based inorganic coagulant with high colloid-destabilizing power and phosphorus removal capacity in wastewater. It is also used for sulfide and odor control in sewer networks. Its dosage is optimized through jar testing according to the effluent to be treated.
Sulfamic Acid
Solid acid that is safer to handle than liquid mineral acids, used as a descaler for scale, oxides, and calcareous deposits on equipment and facilities. It is the base of acid cleaners for boilers, heat exchangers, coils, and sanitary surfaces. Its controlled action reduces the risk of excessive attack on metals compared with other strong acids.
