Usage:
As nonoxidizing bactericide and algicide, the dosage of 50-100mg/L is preferred; as sludge remover, 200-300mg/L is preferred. Adequate organosilicon antifoaming agent should be added for this purpose. This product can be used together with other bactericide such as isothiazolinones, glutaraldehyde, dithionitrile methane, but it cannot be used together with chlorophenols. If sewage appears in circulating cooling water after adding this product, the sewage should be filtered or dredged out in time to prevent the sedimentation after the foam disappears.
Do not blend it with anion surfactant.
