Uses

Tramfloc® 1146 effectively disperses foam columns and blankets without producing a sheen of the reagent on the process flow or wastewater outfall surface. The correct application of Tramfloc® 1146 can result in more effective operation of laser, ultrasonic, and mechanically operated level devices, more pleasing esthetic conditions, better visibility of reaction vessel activity, reduced fouling, reduced carry-over of total suspended solids, CIP solutions and cleaner systems. Tramfloc® 1146 is in compliance with 21 CFR 176.200-10, 173.340 and 40 CFR 180.1001. The formulation is a very stable product, yet it releases its silicone very rapidly when charged to the foaming media. Tramfloc® 1146 is especially effective in controlling chemically induced foam generated by surfactants.

 

Feeding :

It is recommended that the product be fed continuously at a low dosage to a point in the system prior to the generation of the foaming condition. The foam preventive activity of Tramfloc® 1146 will allow for the most economical dosage. The formulation is stable across the entire pH range and at autoclave and CIP temperatures.
