Features & Benefits
- Labeling Claims
- Ready-to-Use Product Features
- Features
- Designed for low ventilation space environments sensitive to odor.
- Exceptional as dispersant, penetrant aid, and surfactant in algae control programs.
- Enhanced 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).
- Penetrates, disperses, cleans, removes organic deposits from cooling water system surfaces.
- Biodegradable (NPDES permit discharge benefit).
- Fast acting.
- Highly effective in high demand systems such as high COC and high solids systems (high TDS).
- Increases biocide effectiveness and lowers their use levels and subsequent costs.
- 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.
- Best used prior to the addition of oxidizing biocide or just after biocide has been added.
- Environmental Benefits
As BCP™ 2000 series products provide quick degradation rates, and because they can be degraded prior to release with commonly used cooling tower treatments, they have environmental friendly profiles.
- Low persistence in the the environment (NPDES discharge permit benefit).
- Biodegradable (NPDES permit discharge benefit).
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Usage & Dosage
BCP™ 2175 may be used in 2 modes:
- Cleanup of a fouled system.
- Maintenance of a relatively clean system, preferably used in conjunction with a scale & corrosion program.
For a heavily fouled system, use BCP™ 2430 series products a part of the physical and/or chemical program and then proceed to use BCP™ 2430 in maintenance mode.
Dosage methods: Slug, Continuous, or Semi-continuous.
BCP™ 2175 may be directly added to a water system at a point of good agitation to insure proper dispersal in the system. Typical dosage is 25 – 65 ppm based on system volume.BCP ™ (Biofilm/Algae/Legionella Control Program) method: Using BCP™ 2175 with your biocide/algaecide of choice provides an effective biofilm/algae control program or as we have termed. Call us for specific information on which biocides/algaecides are preferred in our view, what specific biocides/algaecides have been used effectively, etc.

- Regulatory Considerations
BCP™ 2175 is 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™ 2175 is 6X to 60X safer in aquatic toxicity testing than the chemical called ADBAC (a quat biocide)). Note: BCP™ 2175 is not a quat.
BCP™ formulations are not sold, warranted, or implied to be used as a biocide by AMSA, Inc. in the USA. Such product use is allowed in the USA only under rules and regulations as specified under FIFRA and enforced by the USA EPA.
