BIOXIDETM is an under standard 60 of the National instant granular non-dusting white Sanitation Foundation and/or have either biocide compound. It is free flowing and generally recognized as safe (GRAS) food page very easy to handle. All the inert additive clearances. BIOXIDETM ingredients in BIOXIDETM have has been used for years in Water 2 status as drinking water treatment treatment to control scale, corrosion disinfection and food processing and biofouling and slime removal. It is chemical. also used as a food BIOXIDETM is a combination of OXYDES and other At the same time, it improves ingredients. It dissolves into water the Water quality and degrade all organic rapidly to release high oxidation energy matter, reduce the toxicity of Ammonia, and oxidize with its powerful peroxide Nitrogen, Hydrogen sulfide and de- capabilities every bacteria, viruses, chlorination of chloramines and THM‟s in fungus, algae and slime. water.

It has a very added value of having no odor and being nontoxic and nonpolluting chemicals Instant BIOXIDE www.watchwater.de Water Technology Instant BIOXIDETM & Chemicals

BIOCIDES or BIOXIDES There are two main classes of biocides. On the other hand there are OXIDIZING agent agents such as BIOXIDETM and these are widely used because they are convenient for every facility and these biocides are used in small amounts. The oxidizing action burns the bacteria and fungi outright or it destroys the cell wall without leaving any dead bacteria or nutrient for next generation of bacteria. The other class Surface Chemistry involves highly toxic organic chemical One has to keep in mind that the main goal such as thiazoles, isothiazolins or any of is to limit the growth of SESSILE the biocide containing sulfur (Thio) and BACTERIA, i.e. those that are attached to these biocides should not be used in any surfaces. These types of bacteria tend to applications. build up colony causing, • Slime • Biofilm • Biofouling -that hurts productivity and water quality and damages equipments.

The aim is to create a combination with that there are no problems with 3 oxidizing and non-oxidizing biocides environment or eutrophication with adding scale and corrosion protection phosphates etc. and dispersant.

BIOXIDETM Mechanism BIOXIDETM reaction involves Using BIOXIDETM, mineral the breaking of chemical bounds and the hardness scale is virtually eliminated at removal of electrons. The electrons are about 50-60% of the cost of liquid transferred from the contaminant to the chemicals and none of the cooling towers Oxidant. The process is called, the and heat exchangers need service or oxidation reduction potential (ORP) Shift exchange inclusive repairs. by a factor of -350mV or more in water which controls microorganism growth. BIOXIDETM„s Oxidation/ BIOXIDETM reduces bacteria reduction biocide, bio-dispersant provide and all other microorganism by the most effective, less costly instant disrupting electron transport, causing powder is absolute an alternative to any cellular damage. With all other biocides other chemical treatment. or chemical treatments, scale continues • Major industrial cooling towers depend to form in the cooling towers‟ heat on Katalox Light media for filtration and exchangers, which often results in on BIOXIDETM for all slimicide, bacteria, expensive descaling, biofouling and virus and algae control without the use corrosion problems. of harmful chemicals to the environment.

Innovative This new, complete and innovative BIOXIDETM is so surprising since BIOXIDETM is manufactured by OXYDES provide enhanced biocidal Watch-Water® GmbH in Mannheim, activity when used as combination with Germany. this revolutionary water Watch-Water® non-oxidizing biocide. page disinfection solution is based on a combination of different Oxidants and Watch-Water® has made it possible to 4 non-oxidizing biocides. combine the oxidant and the non-oxidizing biocide at the same time. This BIOXIDETM provide enhanced combination has no reaction with each biocidal activity which is greater than 2 other even in their concentrated forms. oxidizing and non-oxidizing individual The combination of Instant Bioxide also dosings treatment. The microbicidal contains surfactants and dispersants to combination of Watch-Water®„s unique disperse biomass and to keep every process has the highest slimicide surface neat and clean. The anti- destroying power than any other known corrosive material added in the biocide. The enhanced combination combination is to protect all metals from activity of the oxidizing and non-oxidizing corrosive attack by the oxidant.

Additional benefits:

BIOXIDETM can clean every part of the machines, compressors, heat exchangers, chillers, vaporizer and cooling towers on the installation site or during manufacturing, commissioning or at the period of maintenance. State of the equipment to be cleaned in assembled or disassembled form. If the cleaning is desired during all time BIOXIDETM can be used continuously before Katalox-Light.

NOTES on BIOXIDETM cleaning

Note 1 With continuous cleaning, the mechanical cleaning is not essential. Mechanical cleaning is not suitable for many reasons like costs, labor and very expensive shut-down at companies‟ costs. Mechanical cleaning creates the formation of dust and other particles these materials on breathing are hazardous to health.

Note 2 Acid cleaning is not generally used or used to fully remove biomass, bio-fouling, nutrients, phosphate scale contaminants. If present, these should be removed by BIOXIDETM alkaline solution.

Complete filling of BIOXIDETM solution as cleaning material and forced circulation of liquid BIOXIDETM will give a perfect cleaning of metal surfaces and do the best passivation to retard corrosion. After the successful completion of cleaning/On-Line cleaning on bypass circulation all residuals will be page completely filtered by Katalox-Light and by flushing/backwash with clean water 6 to drainage.

BIOXIDETM combined ingredients having a function of softening, corrosion inhibition, and bio-dispersant will protect particularly to avoid the risk of any cleaning stress corrosion. BIOXIDETM cleaning method has replaced all other cleaning methods because of safety and environmental reasons.
