Innova Corporate (India) supplies a specialized Antiscalant for High Silica Water to address a critical challenge in Bawal's groundwater sources. In many areas of Bawal and Rewari district, groundwater contains elevated silica levels (40-90 ppm as SiO₂) due to the region's geological formation (sandstone and granitic aquifers). Silica scaling is particularly problematic in reverse osmosis (RO) systems because it forms hard, glassy deposits that are nearly impossible to remove chemically, leading to irreversible flux decline. Our specialized antiscalant contains amine-functionalized polymers, organophosphonates, and proprietary silica inhibitors that prevent amorphous silica polymerization and magnesium silicate (MgSiO₃) formation. For Bawal's steel mills, foundries, and automotive plants operating RO at high recoveries (75-85%) to conserve water, this product enables sustainable operation without frequent chemical cleaning. For metal finishing and plating units, it prevents silica scale on RO membranes used for rinse water recycling. The antiscalant works by modifying silica particle surface charge, keeping them dispersed in the reject stream. It is effective up to 150 ppm silica and at pH 7-10. In Bawal's summer (45°C/113°F), where silica solubility decreases, our formulation maintains stability. Field trials in Bawal steel mill RO plants showed a 60% extension in membrane cleaning intervals (from 2 months to 5 months). The product is biodegradable and meets Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) norms for ZLD discharge. Dosage: 2-10 ppm. Available in 200L drums, 1000L IBCs. We provide on-site silica testing (colorimetric) and cleaning protocol advice for Bawal's RO operators.
In calculating the dose rate of Tacelene Chem-7066 for industrial units in Bawal, the membrane manufacturer's operating limits and local feed water quality should be strictly considered. All dose rate calculations for the city's water systems should be made on the computer projection programme "e-WATER 5.0", which calculates the SCR for Silica based on regional mineral profiles.
Generally recommended dosage for Bawal facilities is 1 ppm in the feed water for every 6 to 7ppm of total silica in the feed water, depending on the operating pH and temperature of the local processing environment.
At 25°C, pH 7 to 7.5 with 240mg/l silica in the concentrate, Tacelene Chem-7066 is normally dosed at 5.0 to 10 mg/L. For operations within Bawal, Tacelene chem.-7066 can be diluted with product water and should be applied continuously by means of a suitable metering pump. Continuous feed and correct levels are essential for the capital city's machinery, since silica fouled membranes are difficult to clean.
When both dissolved and colloidal silica is present in the Bawal water supply, silica fouling can be difficult to predict because of the complexity of the silica reaction chemistry.
Preventing the formation of substrate material like insoluble calcium and iron salts is required in eliminating silica fouling for local tea and rubber industries. We recommend very effective auto flushing devices to be applied with the high silica waters typically found across Bawal.
Tacelene chem.-7066 has been developed specially as a SILICA inhibitor, for waters with SCR <1.3 to 4.2 mg/l.
For Ipb/Ksp ratios < 3 the preffered product of choice is Tacelene Chem-7065; for ratios 2.8 to 7.0, INNOVA MT 065 is normally dosed at 5.0 to 25 mg/L in the concentrate, which is equivalent to 2.5 to 6 mg/L in the feed water, dependent on the system recovery.
INNOVA MT 065 can be diluted with product water and should be applied continuously by means of a suitable metering pump. Continuous feed is essential since calcium sulphate is difficult to remove once precipitation has occurred.
Do not store the material in open, store in cool dark place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use. This product exhibits very low order of oral toxicity. No special care is required in handling this product.
Avoid contacts with eyes, skin and food. In case of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with large amount of water several times. If swallowed drink large amount of water or milk and get medical attention immediately. Do not re-use the empty container, destroy it.
