Bellacide® 329

Application Use

  • Bellacide 329 is a highly effective algae control agent for use in industrial, ornamental and waste water systems, in a concentrated form.
  • Bellacide 329 can be used in synergistic combinations with halogen release agents for dose optimisation, lower treatment cost and reduced discharge levels of organic biocides.
  • Routine treatment with Bellacide 329, together with intermittent or continuous dosing of halogen, ensures prolonged protection against all identified strains of algae, even at low halogen concentrations.

Features

  • Low levels of both Bellacide 329 and oxidizing biocides can be used for algal control.
  • No build up of resistance due to the mode of action of the treatment. Bellacide 329 and halogens have a different mode of biocidal action which ensures micro-organisms cannot become resistant.
  • Allows oxidising biocides to be more effective against bacteria and fungi because there is no halogen demand from algae.
  • In cooling systems without process leaks, the main source of nutrient for bacteria is produced by algae. So once the algae are controlled it is easier to control other micro-organisms.
  • Bellacide 329 does not foam, is compatible with scale and corrosion inhibitors and is not lost by adsorption on to organic material.
  • Regular use of Bellacide 329 eliminates many of the problems caused by unchecked algal growth i.e. loss of cooling efficiency, increased corrosion, blockages and unsightly visible contamination.
  • Can be easily and directly applied to industrial water circuits.

Benefits

  • Cost of treatment is lower and lower discharge level of biocides from cooling water systems can be achieved, thus reducing their potential aquatic toxicity.
  • No build up of resistance due to the mode of action the treatment. Bellacide 329 and halogens have a different mode of biocidal action which ensures micro-organisms cannot become resistant.
  • Oxidising biocides become more effective because there is no halogen demand from algae.
  • Bellacide 329 can be easily and directly applied to industrial water circuits.
