Antifoam Defoamer Elite M8 is a highly effective liquid product formulated to control foaming and priming in seawater distillation plants. Antifoam Defoamer Elite M8 has proven effectiveness during many years use in distillation plants throughout the world.

Antifoam Defoamer Elite M8 for Seawater Desalination systems or other aqueous systems by RXSOL is a high-performance antifoam formulation based on a synergistic blend of modified alcohols and polymerised glycol ethers, specifically developed to control foam formation in seawater intake, pretreatment, and desalination systems.

The product rapidly collapses existing foam while providing extended foam suppression in seawater streams containing natural organic matter, algae-derived surfactants, hydrocarbons, biological contaminants, and suspended solids. The combination of fast-acting antifoam component and persistent foam-control properties of the polymerised glycol ether delivers both immediate knockdown and long-lasting antifoam performance.

 

The product is designed for continuous or intermittent injection into seawater make-up lines to minimize operational problems associated with foaming in desalination plants.

Application

The foaming tendency of seawater in distillation plants is unpredictable. It is generally thought that foam is formed when organic compounds are concentrated in the brine, giving rise to surface active effects which increase the liquid film strength at phase interfaces. Antifoam Defoamer Elite M8 is not soluble in water. At use concentrations (0.05 - 0.1 mg/l) Antifoam Defoamer Elite M8 forms a micro-emulsion and during evaporation is incorporated into the surface liquid film of bubbles where it acts as a surfactant and reduces the film strength. The result is that the film readily ruptures and a stable foam does not form. In this way a uniform boiling or flashing action is achieved and carry-over is minimised.

Useful Area

The dose level required will depend on the quality of the seawater feed (e.g. dissolved organics, suspended solids) but is typically found to be in the range 0.05 to 0.1 mg/l and is subject to optimisation as operating experience is gained. Dose level is not dependent on operating temperature of the distillation plant. Recommended injection points are either into the seawater make-up line after any external de-aeration and decarbonation equipment, or into the recycle brine stream at a suitable point after the blowdown and typically into the discharge of the recycle brine pump.

General-purpose antifoams have a wide range of applicability, but not all of them are suitable for use in the treatment. Some foam control agents can aggravate the problem. Foam control in gas scrubbers is only one of the process parameters to be monitored. It is equally important to prevent or slow the fouling of the unit, because dismantling of the gas-scrubbing units is manually intensive. Incorrectly specified antifoams can easily lead to increased fouling and clogging, particularly in the heat exchangers. Momentive Performance Materials RXSOL antifoams are designed to provide foam control with a minimum of such problems.

RXSOL is one of the leading manufacturers and suppliers of all kinds of Antifoam Defoamers for Seawater Distilations, Glycol dehydration systems, Waste Water Treatment plants, etc. One of the most efficient and popular ANTIFOAM DEFOAMERS is RXSOL Antifoam Defoamer M8 which is extensively used in seawater distillation plants. Its highly concentrated formulation makes it cost efficient and enables quick knockdown of foam in distillation plants.

Precautions & Remarks

Low dose levels, typically in the range 0.05 to 0.1 mg/l in the seawater feed stream, depending on feed water quality. Activity is not dependent on temperature. No need to alter dose level if top brine temperature (TBT) changes. Negligible steam volatility and carry over into the distillate.

RXSOL-16-2066-200 is antifoam emulsion and its more concentrated antifoam emulsion. It has excellent candidates for controlling foam in amine and glycol dehydration units. This is suitable products for gas plants and have excellent stability in the presence of salts, resulting in reduced deposits on the plant’s equipment. RXSOL-16-2066-210  help preserves foam control under the severe conditions of a dehydrating unit. These conditions can remove water from other antifoam emulsions, rendering them immediately inactive.
