Application

Bactericidal and Algicidal Agent ＆ Slime Stripper

As bactericide and algaecide, BKC has high bactericidal and algal killing ability, low toxicity, no cumulative toxicity, easy to dissolve in water, easy to use, not affected by water hardness, with strong peeling effect, suitable for power plants and large chemical plants circulating cooling water of bactericidal and algicidal agent and stripping agent, used to control the circulating cooling water system accumulation of dirt and sulfate reducing bacteria under the scale. It has good killing and inhibiting effect on heterotrophic bacteria, iron bacteria, sulfate reducing bacteria, anaerobic bacteria and fungi in circulating cooling water system, and it is better to kill bacteria and algae in oilfield water injection.

Non-oxidizing Fungicide

BKC is a cationic surfactant, a non-oxidizing fungicide, used for washing and care as bactericide.

FAQ

How to use Benzalkonium Chloride?

BKC is used as a bactericide and algicide, the general dosage is 50-100mg/L; As a slime stripping agent, the amount of use is 200-300mg/L, and an appropriate amount of silicone defoamer can be added when necessary. 1227 can be used with other fungicides, such as isothiazolinone, glutaraldehyde, dithiocyanomethane, etc., can play a synergistic role, but can not be used with chlorophenols. After the addition of 1227, the dirt in the circulating water due to stripping should be filtered or fished out in time to avoid deposition after the foam disappears.
