This water based, nonselective contact herbicide is for land use to provide top kill of green vegetation. Deactivates in two weeks or less. One tablet treats 1000 gallons of water for 3-4 weeks. The most common scales are calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate and silica or silicates. Scale buildup on surfaces can be extremely hard and difficult to remove.
Corrosion can reduce the life-span of equipment by years, requiring expensive replacement.
It can lead to costly equipment repairs and production downtime. Corrosion related deposits lead to reduced capacity and wasted energy because of heat transfer efficiency losses. They are introduced to the system as suspended solids and may enter by the makeup water, from corrosion by products, or as airborne materials. Examples include mud, sand, silt, clay oils, debris, organics, microbes, etc. These materials adhere to heat transfer surfaces and reduce heat transfer and water flow.
