Ferrogard® Iron Salts Dosing
The effectiveness of ferric and ferrous chloride dosing for odour and corrosion control in sewerage networks is well proven. Odour Control Systems has developed the Ferrogard® Dosing System to facilitate the efficient application of this technology.
Most sewer odour problems are caused by the presence of hydrogen sulphide (H2S), formed by the anaerobic breakdown of sulphates in solution to form sulphides. Ferrous Chloride (Fe2+) reduces sewage odour by reducing the formation of H2S gas. As sulphides are released into solution, the iron (Fe2+) in the ferrous chloride solution immediately binds to the sulphide and removes it from solution by forming an insoluble precipitate. This reaction is irreversible and dramatically reduces the formation of odorous sulphur-based compounds.
The Ferrogard® Dosing System comprises a range of automated dosing units from small to large capacity.
The range of sizes enables:
- a whole-of-system approach to odour and corrosion control from low-flow to high-flow sections of the sewerage network
- cost effective odour and corrosion control for small and large sewerage systems
- precise targeting of septic flow sources
- specifically designed systems to suit your needs
- effective control of OHS and environmental issues
