OPTITREAT

Description

OPTITREAT is an advanced liquid boiler water treatment product, formulated with polymer scale inhibitors, alkaline compounds, phosphates and condensateprotecting amines. In addition to combining alkalinity control, scale inhibitors, and deposit control, OPTITREAT provides protection from corrosion. It efficiently treats Boiler/Steam Water in System lines and Condensate. It provides an excellent and very practical way of treatment, using only one product. Scale, corrosion and foaming are the main problems in Marine Boilers, due to the fact that when the water evaporates, precipitation of salts occurs rapidly.

If these salts were not treated they could be turned into very hard scale deposits, which would reduce the system ability to produce steam. This can result in a low volume of steam, which can delay critical operations
on the vessel where steam is used as the ‘driving force’, and will certainly increase the cost of heating, as more fuel would be required to produce the same result.If the boiler water is not treated properly, this would be rapidly resulting in the whole system deterioration due to corrosion.

OPTITREAT controls the problems described above by achieving the appropriate chemical concentrations and their correct monitoring will maintain the system in a good working condition. When properly dosed it creates the required Alkalinity and Phosphate concentration levels to avoid the acidic “attack” and salts precipitation respectively.

Furthermore, it releases into the system a volatile amine inhibitor that circulates with steam in the tube lines, protecting the steel metallic surfaces and condensate system from Carbonic Acid “attack”. Along with the use of OPTITREAT the application of an Oxygen scavenger is required to completely remove the Oxygen dissolved in water, as this is the main cause of corrosion in the system. OPTITREAT can be combined either with MARZINE PLUS or OXYBLOCK D, two unique products that are both excellent Oxygen
scavengers for boiler water treatment programs.
