Nu-Well 310 Bioacid Dispersant

Nu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant is a unique polymeric-acid chemistry that is the most effective product available for breaking down biofilm and dispersing mineral salts. Nu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant provides a considerable boost to any acid-cleaning operation, is readily biodegradable and may be used to treat potable water systems and related equipment. Maintains the acid reaction, holding minerals in suspension at pH levels of 3.0 and higher. Controls sludging by preventing re-precipitation or adhesion, for thorough removal of biological material during flushing. – Dislodges biofilm masses associated with iron oxidizing, sulfate-reducing and more prevalent slime forming bacteria, which are not removed by mineral acids alone– Sequesters iron and inhibits corrosion on metal surfaces. Iron sequestering allows the chemical solution to remove heavy accumulation of iron compounds, often the cause of fouling water systems– Protects all forms of metal in the system and will not attack plastic, neoprene or other synthetic materials, eliminating the need for acid inhibitors– Provides passivation of metals when used with phosphoric acid – NSF approved for cleaning potable water wells, pipelines and filter systems ApplicationNu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant is designed for use with acid solutions to enhance the acid cleaning reaction and improvethe overall cleaning. Standard dosage is 3 percent (1 to 2 percent for maintenance). Dosage of Nu-Well 310 bioaciddispersant can range from 0.5 to 5 percent (by weight) of treatment volume.Optimal concentration depends on the type and severity of the fouling and degree of impaction on the wells efficiency. It isrecommended that well construction and performance history be submitted, along with water samples for lab analysis, toproperly determine dosage on large municipal and industrial wells. 1. Surface prepare a solution of water, acid and Nu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant equal to approximately 40 percent of thetotal static volume into a vessel of appropriate size. First add water, then acid, thenNu-Well 310 biocacid dispersant. (Note: NEVER add water to acid! DO NOT mix Nu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant directlyto commercial concentrations of liquid acid, as polymer destruction may occur.)2. Place the surface-solution evenly across the intake zone, ensuring contact with affected areas at the recommendedconcentration. Agitate the cleaning solution to enhance the effectiveness of cleaning3. The solution should remain in contact for 18 to 48 hours, depending on the nature of the deposit. Monitor the pH andkeep it below 3.0 during treatment. If additional acid is needed (to lower pH), add an amount equal to approximately 20percent of the initial amount of acid applied4. Discharge the acid solution from the well, neutralize at the surface and dispose in accordance with local regulations PHYSICAL PROPERTIES, SHIPPING AND HANDLINGAppearance: Amber liquidDensity: 10 lbs./gal.pH (as shipped): 2.0Specific Gravity: 1.19Freeze point: 26 °F (-3 °C)Solubility (in water): 100%Use range: 0.5 to 5% by volume - Nu-Well 310 bioacid dispersant is an acid-based liquid.
