BDS 6600

Microbiological control

Description

A liquid, single-feed bromine biocide composed of stabile bromine solution.

Applications

BDS 6600 is used as a disinfectant, fungicide, algicide and/or slimicide for wastewater, commercial and industrial recirculating cooling water systems and industrial once-through cooling water systems.

It is also used to control biofilm deposits in pumps, pipes, heat exchangers and filters associated with industrial water treatment systems.

Features

This powerful broad spectrum biocide effectively and quickly controls bacteria, algae and fungi through HOBr action.

HOBr is a powerful broad spectrum biocide recommended for desinfection of recirculating and once-through cooling systems, food processing equipment (pasteurisers, sterilisers or retorts), air washers and other industrial water systems.

BDS 6600 is recommended for alkaline (7,5<pH<9,5) and contaminated waters (NH3 and nitrogen), where chlorine is not giving efficient microbial control.

NaOBr remains active in alkaline waters (pH = 7,5-9,5) resulting in more efficient desinfections than when using chlorine based biocides.

BDS 6600 suffers less from flash-off losses compared to chlorine based biocides.

BDS 6600 offer all advantages of bromine chemistry combined with the ease of dosing: there is no need for labour intensive and complex feed equipment, simple dosing pumps are sufficient.

Feeding

The product dosage rate will depend on system design, water characteristics and operational parameters. In most of the application a residual in 0.2 – 0.5 ppm of residual free available halogen is sufficient to keep the control of the system.
