Technical Tip by Dr. Dhawan:  Selecting an Antiscalant

One of the three methods of minimizing membrane scaling is the use of antiscalant. (The other two are water softening and acid injection.)  AMI supplies FLOCON 100, which is used as an antiscalant.  A small dosage of approximately 5 ppm is injected into the feed stream.  In simplified terms, an antiscalant delays the scale formation process.  This delay is sufficient to avoid precipitation of calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate on the membrane surface.

 The presence of iron or other heavy metals in the water can make the antiscalant  ineffective.  In this situation, an antiscalant/dispersant combination (FLOCON 260) can be used  to prevent the heavy metals from interfering with the antiscalant.
