Glutaraldehyde
45% Glutaraldehyde - 5 to 55 Gallon Containers

DESCRIPTION AND USE Gluteraldehyde is a highly concentrated microbiocide for use in recirculating cooling water and air washer systems. The product is effective over a wide pH range against slime forming bacteria, sulfate reducing bacteria and fungi. The product functions to kill these microorganisms by reacting with the cell wall. Thus, it possesses many unique features when compared to other materials:

  • Very effective over a broad spectrum of organisms.
  • Aqueous solution which is relatively safe to handle and is easily diluted and mixed when treating.
  • Unlike most non oxidizing biocides, it will function to clean up a biologically fouled system.
  • Functions over wide pH and temperature ranges and will not react with the wide range of inhibitors and anionic dispersants used in modern cooling water treatment.
  •  It is non surface active and therefore will not foam when used. 
CHEMICAL FEEDING AND CONTROL When a system is noticeably fouled, BioGuard 46 should be slug dosed to establish a concentration of 50 to 100ppm actives in the recirculating water (i.e. 4.6 9.2 fl. ozs/100 gals. contained water). Once control is evident, a dosage of 20 to 50ppm (1.8 4.6 fl. ozs/100 gals.) on a weekly basis will normally maintain control unless unusual conditions develop.
