BCP™ 1000 - Classic DTEA II™

1 of 8 products in this brand
BCP™ 1000 - Classic DTEA II™ are multi-purpose products. Their primary use is as a powerful organic deposit cleaner, deposit penetrant, and deposit dispersant in industrial water systems. They are also used in All-in-One drum formulations. BCP™ 1000 Series Products, used with biocide, provide a cost effective Biofilm Control Program. BCP™ 1000 series products are commonly used in legionella cleanup and maintenance programs. When used as a cleaner/dispersant, BCP™ 1000 series products provide copper corrosion inhibition similar to azoles. When used with citric acid in formulated form or co-fed, they provide excellent mild steel corrosion inhibition.

Ready-to-Use Product Features
Features
  • Penetrates, disperses, cleans, removes organic deposits from industrial water system surfaces.
  • Works well with algaecides in many algae control programs as cleaner, dispersant, and penetrant aid.
  • Biodegradable (NPDES permit discharge benefit).
  • Azole-like copper corrosion inhibition properties.
  • Reduces corrosion by keeping metal surfaces free of organic deposition (indirect mode of action), as well as acting similar to a film forming amine (direct mode of action).
  • Fast acting.
  • Highly effective in high demand systems such as high COC and high solids systems (high TDS).
  • Increases biocide effectiveness and lowers biocide use levels.
  • Excellent compatibility with cooling water treatment programs.
  • Reduces oxidizing biocide demand and increases biocide residuals.
  • Not affected by high pH; works very well at pH above 7.
  • Not affected by high organic load.
  • Not affected by high concentrations of ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, or other strong nucleophiles.
  • Exceptionally good fit in All-in-One drum formulations for traditional scale and corrosion formulas.
Environmental Benefits
  • Low persistence in the environment (NPDES discharge permit benefit).
  • These products are expected to be rapidly biodegradable based on similar products performance (NPDES permit discharge benefit).

Applications & Uses

Markets
Special Uses

Formulations - Excellent use as a component in traditional scale & corrosion formulation recipes to provide an all-in-One drum product.
Sulfur deposit control - In systems with sulfur and related issues, BCP™ 1000 Series Products (Classic DTEA II ™) inhibits and removes sulfur/sulfide deposits (used since 2003 in Mexico and Philippines). Patents issued
and patents pending cover this application worldwide.
Legionella Control Programs - Proven efficacy as cleaner and dispersant in Legionella control programs. Call us for case studies and related in information.

General Use Guidelines

BCP™ 1000 Series Products may be used in two modes:

  • Cleanup of a fouled system – Use BCP™ 1000 Series Products as a part of the physical and/or chemical program and then proceed to use BCP™ 1000 Series Products in maintenance mode.
  • Maintenance to keep systems clean (Clean it Up & Keep it Clean™).

Dosage methods: Slug, Continuous, or Semi-continuous.
BCP™ 1000 Series Products may be directly added to a water system at a point of good agitation to insure proper dispersal in the system. See the BCP™ 1015 or BCP™ 1030 - Biofilm Control Program Application Guides for specific information on dosing.
BCP ™ (Biofilm/Algae/Legionella Control Program) method: Using BCP™ 1000 Series Products with your biocide/algaecide of choice provides an effective Biofilm/Algae/Legionella control program. Call us for specific information on which type of biocides are preferred in our view, what specific biocides have been used effectively, etc.

Regulatory & Compliance

Regulatory Considerations

BCP™ 1000 Series Products are biodegradable (OECD guidelines and aquatic use profile is in keeping with modern day expectations of water treatment chemicals for ecological friendliness. For comparison purposes, BCP™ 1015 is 6X to 60X safer* in aquatic toxicity testing than the chemical called ADBAC (a quat biocide)).
Note: BCP™ 1015 is not a quat.
