IWE CC5 Strongly Acidic Membrane Cleaner

 

[su_note note_color=”#e5f2ff” radius=”10″]IWE CC5 has been developed as a general-purpose cleaner for inorganic scale and iron deposits found in most types of membrane system. It is also highly effective at removing organic deposits from severely fouled systems.[/su_note] [two_third] [product_table totals=”false” page_length=”false” reset_button=”false” search_box=”false” columns=”image,name,price:Price Inc VAT,add-to-cart” sort_by=”price” show_quantity=”true” category=”iwe-cc5″] [/two_third] [one_third_last]

Membrane Cleaning Chemicals - IWE CC5

[/one_third_last] [two_third padding=”0 10px 0 0″]

 

Application

IWE CC5 is effective when used as a 1-2% solution and alternately soaked and recycled through the membrane system for 1-2 hours. Cleaning solution pH should be the minimum recommended by the membrane manufacturer. If the pH starts to rise during the cleaning process additional IWE CC5 should be added or the cleaning solution replaced. After cleaning, IWE CC5 cleaning solutions should be slowly neutralised to pH 6-7 using an alkaline solution before discharge, as the presence of acid solutions can be damaging to concrete and cement lined discharge pipes. Before returning the plant to service, the membrane system should be thoroughly flushed, until the pH of the feed and the concentrate are similar. The product water conductivity may initially be high but will return to normal after a few hours of operation. IWE CC5 is fully miscible with water in all proportions.

Health and Safety

IWE CC5 is a mixture of nitric and phosphoric acids and care should be taken during handling. Solutions of IWE CC5 are corrosive to carbon steel and many other metals and materials of construction, so all chemical tanks, pumps and pipe-work must be made from acid-resistant materials. Observe all safety precautions shown in the material safety data sheet, available on request.
