Applications Across Industries

Vitec® 3000 ensures exceptional protection for reverse osmosis (RO) and membrane filtration systems used in industries and facilities such as:

  • Municipal Water Treatment
    Protects membranes in large-scale potable water production systems.

  • Industrial Applications
    Maintains system efficiency for manufacturing facilities, refineries, and energy plants.

  • Food & Beverage Processing
    Ensures high water quality while prolonging equipment lifespan in regulated environments.

  • Desalination Plants
    Optimizes scale inhibition in systems treating seawater and brackish water.

Real-World Example

A municipal water treatment plant solved recurring membrane issues by implementing Vitec® 3000. The result? Membranes lasted 40% longer, reducing maintenance downtime and cutting annual chemical costs by 15%.

Injection Point:
To ensure optimal performance, inject Vitec® 3000 downstream of multimedia filters and upstream of cartridge filters for maximum efficacy.


Application & Dosing Details

Dosing Guidelines

  • Dosage Rate
    Typical use ranges from 2 to 5 ppm, customized based on feed water conditions. Use the Avista Advisor computer program or consult Avista experts for precise system-specific recommendations.

  • Dilution Instructions

    • Dilute with demineralized (DI) water or RO permeate to less than 10% by weight.
    • For dilutions below 1%, always use DI-quality water to preserve the internal bacteriostat.
    • Softened water may be used if DI or RO permeate water is unavailable.

Operational Instructions

  1. Monitor Parameters
    Continuously observe pH, temperature, and scaling indicators during application to ensure the chemical maintains its performance.
  2. System Integration
    Inject the solution as per recommended dosing points to achieve a consistent distribution across the system.

These straightforward steps ensure that your membranes remain protected, reducing the likelihood of system pressure drops or unscheduled shutdowns.


Benefits in Detail

  • Enhanced Membrane Productivity
    Keeps membranes clean, ensuring high water flux and consistent permeate quality.

  • Cost Savings Through Longevity
    Reduces the need for chemical cleanings and replacements, lowering overall operational expenses.

  • Eco-Friendly Operation
    Low-dosage requirements minimize the environmental impact, making this a sustainable choice.

  • Effortless Integration
    Compatible with a variety of existing treatment setups, reducing additional system adjustments.

  • Reliability in Harsh Conditions
    Performs exceptionally well in scaling-prone environments with high silica and sulfate concentrations.

Performance Metrics

Contaminants Controlled Scaling Threshold
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) > 900 CCPP (LSI > 2.5)
Calcium Sulfate (CaSO4) 3.5 x Ksp
Barium Sulfate (BaSO4) 105 x Ksp
Strontium Sulfate (SrSO4) 20 x Ksp
Silica (SiO2) Up to 120 ppm

Vitec® 3000 delivers superior protection against specific scales, outperforming many standard antiscalant solutions available on the market.


Packaging and Storage
