This product has received NSF/International certification under
ANSI/NSF Standard *0 in the reverse osmosis
antiscalant category. The official name is "Miscellaneous Water
Supply Products." Maximum product application dosage is: *0
mg/l.
PRINCIPAL USES
MAKS **0P is one of the principal antiscalants used by the membrane
industry. For many years MAKS **0P has found application as an
antiscalant and antifoulant in membrane systems using a wide
selection of brackish, high salinity, process and effluent
feed-waters.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MAKS **0P is super-threshold agent able to stabilize a wide range
of supersaturated salt solutions.
DOSAGE AND APPLICATION
The BIMAKS computer package will define the optimum chemical
requirement for any given water quality. In calculating dosage
rates, membrane manufacturer’s limits, product capability,
operating parameters and feed water quality are all considered.
All calculations are made on the concentrated reject brine and
utilize the predicted Langelier Saturation Index, or the Stiff and
Davis Index where seawater and high salinity water is in use.
Calcium, barium and strontium sulfate solubility’s are also
calculated as is the dose of MAKS **0P.
In all reverse osmosis systems, continuous dosing to the fed water
line downstream of the cartridge filters provides maximum
protection. The product should be fed by a dosing pump, preferably
straight from the packaging or diluted with distilled water.
The dosage rate can vary in the range of 1 - *0 ppm according to
feed water quality and operating conditions.
Your BIMAKS representative will recommend the optimum dosage
necessary to ensure maximum program performance according to your
specific system parameters.
MAKS **0P needs to be fed continuously to the feed water. Dosing of
the neat product is preferable.
MATERIALS: Storage tanks, piping and feeding equipment for MAKS
**0P should be constructed of PE, PVC, PTFE or stainless steel.
Direct contact of the neat product should be avoided with aluminum,
brass, carbon steel and nickel.
HANDLING-STORAGE-SHIPPING
As a standard precaution with all chemicals we recommend the use of
protective equipment such as goggles and rubber gloves when
handling. Consult the Product Material Safety Data Sheet as the
only official source of Environmental and Safety information.
The product can be stored for more than *4 months from date of
shipping if kept in its original unopened containers and under
normal warehouse conditions. Protect from freezing and from
exposure to high temperature.
MAKS **0P is available in non-returnable *0 kg pails or containers
of different sizes.
