Sequestration

Scaling & Cloudiness: A Hidden Threat to Water Systems


Dissolved minerals such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and manganese can create significant challenges for water systems. These minerals often cause scaling, cloudiness, and flow restrictions in distribution systems, leading to reduced operational efficiency, increased maintenance requirements, and customer complaints about water quality.

How Carus Can Help

Carus’ advanced polyphosphate blends are specifically designed to address these challenges by effectively binding with dissolved minerals to:

Prevent Scale Formation: 

Inhibit the accumulation of mineral deposits in pipes, valves, and equipment, which can lead to costly repairs and reduced efficiency.

Support System Maintenance:

Facilitate more effective flushing programs, reduce the frequency of maintenance, and minimize disruptions in operations.

Improve Water Clarity:

Mitigate red, brown, or black water discoloration caused by iron and manganese, delivering visibly clear water to customers.

Solutions in Action

  • Deliver cleaner, clearer water that meets customer satisfaction and regulatory standards.
  • Protect critical infrastructure from scaling and corrosion, extending its operational lifespan.
  • Optimize operational workflows, reducing the time and resources required for maintenance and repairs.
