Abstract:
The present invention relates to an organophosphonium derivative of the mean general formula (1), where n is a number comprised between 4 and 20, preferably between 5 and 10, m is a number between 0 and 10, preferably between 0 and 1, and Y is an anion.The invention also relates to a method for preparing same, and to a method for controlling the growth of bacterial biomass in an aqueous system, including adding to said aqueous system or contacting said aqueous system with an efficient amount of an uncoupling agent selected from an organophosphonium derivative as defined above.
