Ecological Effects

Biodegradable. Permanent dosing with 10 ppm a.i. shows no negative effect on aerobic oxidation with activated sludge. For anaerobic degradation this level is 2 ppm. BIT has low bioaccumulation potential: Log P oct/w = 1.11 .

HIGHLIGHTS

PROMEX™ Na20S meets the highest purity requirements. Technically generated impurities are often the cause of undesired side effects in terms of toxicological or technical properties. These impurities are reduced to a minimum in PROMEX™ Na20S. PROMEX™ Na20S penetrates the cells of microorganisms, reacts with vital parts of the cells and inactivates important substrates and enzymes necessary to normal cell function. These relatively unspecific reactions exhibit a bactericidal effect and minimize adaptation or the development of microbial resistance.
