Manufacturers, Exporters and Suppliers of Benzalkonium Chloride BKC 80% – High Concentration Biocide for Industrial Water Treatment in Ethiopia

Innova Corporate (India) provides a highly concentrated Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC

Innova Corporate (India) offers Benzalkonium Chloride 80% – a high-concentration quaternary ammonium biocide for Ethiopia's heavy-duty industrial applications where storage space is limited and transportation costs matter – common in dense industrial zones like Addis Ababa, Modjo Leather City, Hawassa Industrial Park, Bole Lemi, and Dire Dawa Industrial Park. With 80% active content, it reduces volume by 40% for the same biocidal activity. BKC 80 is highly effective against sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) that cause hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) production and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) in Ethiopia's closed-loop cooling systems, fire-fighting water lines, and effluent channels. For textile mills and tanneries using recycled water (increasingly common in water-stressed areas), BKC 80 controls biofilm in sand filters, cartridge filters, and RO pretreatment systems, reducing pressure drop and extending filter life. For food and beverage plants, it prevents slime in cooling loops and CIP systems. The product lowers surface tension to 31 dynes/cm at 500 ppm, improving wetting and penetration. pH of 1% solution is 6-8. Compatibility testing with Ethiopia's process water (surface or groundwater blends) shows no precipitate formation below 100 ppm. Dosing recommendations for cooling towers in textile, tannery, and food plants: 50-150 ppm initial shock dose, 10-30 ppm continuous. For reverse osmosis membrane storage during plant shutdowns (e.g., during Ethiopia's rainy season when some facilities reduce production), BKC 80 at 100-200 ppm prevents microbial growth. Available in 25L, 200L drums. We provide on-site compatibility testing and dosing optimization for Ethiopia's varied water chemistries.
