Application Guideline

Scale Specific Antiscalant

Broad spectrum antiscalants will fit many situations, but with RO technology spreading to new areas, feed waters with an unconventional chemistry become more frequent :

  • Ground waters in arid & desert areas frequently contain high levels of calcium, magnesium, silica and sulphate
  • Tertiary effluent recycling systems typically face high levels of phosphate
  • Extensive extraction from aquifers can lead to the deterioration of the water chemical composition over time.

In order to cope with such waters, Genesys has developed a range of scale specific antiscalants such as : Genesys SI, Genesys PHO or Genesys CAS.

Genesys Range of Antiscalants

The Genesys range of products are designed to treat all possible plant situations and feed water requirements. The main antiscalants are reproduced in the table below, for the complete list please go to our website : www.genesysro.com.
