Innova Corporate (India) offers Mill Sanitation Di-Thio Carbamate Based biocide for sugar mills, paper mills, and starch plants – though Delhi has limited such industries (paper mills near Narela), this product is relevant for food processing and confectionery where microbial contamination causes spoilage. The active ingredient is sodium dimethyl dithiocarbamate (SDDC) or disodium ethylene bis dithiocarbamate (DEDTC), effective against bacteria, fungi, and yeast in sugar syrups, molasses, and starch slurries. For Delhi's confectionery and bakery units that use large quantities of sugar syrup (50-70 Brix), adding 10-50 ppm of this biocide to storage tanks prevents fermentation and mold growth, extending shelf life from days to months – critical for products with long distribution. For paper mills (if any), it controls slime in paper machine white water and starch kitchens. For molasses storage (if any feed stock for ethanol), it prevents gas formation. The product is food-grade (FDA approved for indirect food contact – 21 CFR 173.310) at low levels. It is supplied as a clear to pale yellow liquid (40% active) or water-soluble powder (90% active). It is non-foaming and stable over pH 6-10. For Delhi's sugar syrup clarification (for confectionery), it is sometimes used as a preservative after filtration. Dosage: 5-25 ppm for syrup storage tanks. Available in 25L, 200L drums. We provide on-site yeast and mold testing (petrifilm or agar plates) to verify efficacy. For paper mills, this biocide controls slime. Shelf life: 18 months.
For industrial operators in Delhi, INNOVA SP 002 is exceedingly effective against Leuconostoc mesenteroides and Saccharomyces. These two organisms are primarily responsible for the major loss of sugar due to inversion. The application of INNOVA SP 002 brings about a drastic reduction in the formation of reducing sugars, preserving product value.
The addition of INNOVA SP 002 will minimize sugar inversion and increase mill efficiency for facilities in Delhi. For optimal results, INNOVA SP 002 is fed continuously at three positions on the mill tandem to ensure comprehensive microbial control.
