Martint Environmental -- Wastewater Treatment Solutions and Chemicals

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

MARFLOC_® is a multi-functional, blend of low molecular weight, cationic, organic substrates, supplied as and aqueous solution.

PRINCIPLE USES

MARFLOC_® coagulants are a high performance replacement for inorganic coagulants, including Alum, Ferric Sulfate and Ferric Chloride in wastewater treatment. MARFLOC_® was designed specifically for the treatment of wastewaters containing various colors/dyes, emulsions, heavy metal, oil/grease, phosphates, and other suspended solids. MARFLOC_® is also effective in breaking emulsions and lowering COD, BOD, and Color of wastewaters.

MARFLOC_® will coagulate/flocculate many wastewaters that cannot be effectively treated using inorganic coagulants and will remove a wider range of contaminants than either organic or inorganic coagulant alone.

MARFLOC_® can be utilized as a finishing aid for biological treatment systems to assist in color/dye, metal and suspended solids removal prior to clarification. It is also highly effective in chemical pretreatment systems for removing pollutants by precipitation, or as a primary coagulant and/or flocculent in industrial applications.

PRODUCT ADVANTAGES

Low dosage requirements
Function over a wide range of pH
Compatible with other chemistries
More cost effective than inorganic coagulant treatment programs
Greatly reduced sludge volume, resulting in significant cost savings for all sludge handling operations
Reduced levels of TDS in treated waters; especially suited for “ zero discharge” applications where addition of chlorides and sulfates must be minimized

APPLICATION

MARFLOC_® is intended for use with automated control systems, using chemical pumps that feed the reagent directly from the shipping container into the wastewater stream. The reagent should be fed at a point in the system where rapid and thorough mixing can occur. MARFLOC® exhibits optimum performance at a pH range between 6.0 and 10.0.

PERFORMANCE DATA

Biological treatment systems using approximately 30 ppm of MARFLOC_® have shown reductions of:

80-90% BOD
40-98% COD
40-90% Color
20-99% Heavy Metals

HEALTH AND SAFETY

MARFLOC_® should be used only by qualified personnel, instructed in proper safety precautions. Rubber gloves, aprons and chemical goggles are recommended during any handling of the reagent in neat form or work on the fed systems. Detailed information on handling and any precautions to be observed in the use of the product described can be found in our Material Safety Data Sheet.
