OLKLIN-ASPAN
ANTISCALANT FOR PAN EVAPORATOR
INTRODUCTION:
OLKLIN-ASPAN is a polyacrylate, which unlike polyphosphates has an excellent hydrolytic stability. When used at threshold levels OLKLIN-ASPAN effectively inhibits the precipitation of many scale-forming minerals and also modifies the crystal morphology. Both of these properties plays key role in keeping heat exchanger or evaporator surfaces scale-free. OLKLIN-ASPAN exhibit a threshold inhibition property whereby a few parts per million can stabilize hundreds or thousands of times as many scale-forming ions. Surface absorption of polymers on the growth sites of scale-forming crystal is the most plausible explanation of the mechanism for crystal growth inhibition and distortion.

APPLICATION:
OLKLIN-AS should be fed into the system neat or diluted solution, with the use of a metering / dosing pump or with the simple tap as follows:
- Multiple Effect Evaporators: 4-6 ppm added to the clarified juice tank.
- Juice Heat Exchangers: 2-3 ppm added to the main feeding tubes.
- Pans: a dosage of 4-5ppm based on weight of the massecuite.
- Or it can be fed in to the system as discussed and decided as per technical requirement.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- High performance scale inhibition in sugar evaporators.
- Wide range of activity on calcium oxalate, calcium sulphate and calcium carbonate scales.
- Designed to prevent the precipitation and formation of adherent calcium scales in sugar evaporators.
STORAGE AND HANDLING:
Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles when handling. In case of skin or eye contact, wash off with soap and water and seek medical attention. Refer material safety data sheet before handling the product.
STANDARD PACKAGING: 55 kg / 220 kg drums.
