摘要:
This invention relates to a method for stabilizing and maintaining water wells penetrating a subterranean formation for the production of water which comprises adding to the wells at least one anionic polymeric sequesterant derived from a carboxylic acid and then subsequently treating the well water with a small but effective amount of at least one biocide.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process of dissolving and removing silicate scale and particularly magnesium silicate scale and sludge from various aqueous systems, particularly boiler water and desalination systems by adding to the water effective amounts of at least one water-soluble phosphinocarboxylic acid. These polyphosphinocarboxylic acids and the salts thereof are added to the water in the aqueous system in amounts ranging up to about 50 thousand parts by weight per million and preferably in amounts ranging up to about 2000 parts by weight per million parts by weight of water either alone or in combination with at least one organic dispersant selected from the group consisting of nonionic and anionic dispersants.
摘要:
A method of treating and removing volatile organic contaminants from ground water by treating the water with effective amounts of a water-soluble polymeric sequesterant comprising polymers derived from acrylic acid or organic acid, followed by the addition of a biocide, e.g., chlorine, and then subsequently passing the treated water through a packed column or air stripper wherein the volatile organic contaminants are removed by passing air in a counter-direction to the flow of water at temperatures ranging from about 40.degree. to about 200.degree. F.
摘要:
Corrosion inhibiting compositions for inhibiting corrosion and the deposition of mineral scale on metal in aqueous systems contain sequestrants such as carboxylic acids, phosphates, or optionally sulfur containing lignosulfonates, as well as carboxylated phosphonic acids of the formula ##STR1## wherein m is from 1 to about 6, wherein n is from 0 to about 6, wherein R is --H, -alkyl, -alkenyl, -alkynyl, -aryl, -alkyl substituted aryl, -cycloalkyl, -methylene phosphonic acid, or -methylene carboxylic acid, and wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 independently is --H, -alkyl, -aryl, -alkyl substituted aryl, --OH, --SH, --NH.sub.2, --PO.sub.3 H.sub.2, --CH.sub.2 PO.sub.3 H.sub.2, --CO.sub.2 H, --CH.sub.2 CO.sub.2 H, halogen, or --SO.sub.3 H. The composition can also contain other corrosion inhibiting compounds such as azoles, molybdates, and the like.
