Applications & Uses

I&I Cleaning Applications
Applications

Special Antifoam Application  for Sugar Beet Molasses

  • KEBOSPUM VZ is a highly efficient antifoam which can be used to avoid foam formation during storage of molasses.
  • KEBOSPUM VZ can be added in undiluted form as well as diluted with water. The most favorable form of application depends on the individual local conditions. There are different possibilities of application:
    • spraying of the undiluted or diluted antifoam on the foam surface in the molasses tank
    • batchwise addition of the diluted or undiluted antifoam, preferably to eliminate already existing foam in molasses tank
    • preferably continuous addition to the molasses before storage for the prevention of foam formation.

Special Antifoam Application for Acid Surface-Active Degreasing Baths

  • KEBOSPUM VZ is a highly efficient antifoam which has been developed particularly for galvanizing plants to eliminate foam from exhausted acid degreasing baths.
  • KEBOSPUM VZ can be added in undiluted form as well as diluted with water. The most favorable form of application depends on the individual local conditions. There are different possibilities of application:
    • spraying of the undiluted or diluted antifoam on the foam surface
    • batchwise addition of the diluted or undiluted antifoam, preferably to eliminate already existing foam
    • preferably continuous addition for the prevention of foam formation.
Areas of Application

Acidic surfactant degreasing baths.

Addition and Dosing

As the addition of the antifoam depends on the degree of foam formation and the foam stability, it is not possible to indicate any details about the necessary quantities. In general the dosing rate amounts to 0.1 up to 0.5 %. We recommend to determine the most favorable dosing rate by tests on your own with the medium tending to foam.
