Water can contain a wide variety of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and parasite eggs. The general problems are: biological contamination; inorganic contaminants like iron and manganese that promote pathogens like fungi, bacteria, and viruses; health risk chemical contamination, sodium, chloride, magnesium and sulfate; reduction of consumption due to excess alkalinity; deterioration of the installation due to corrosion and/or encrustation; Plugging in irrigation tapes, leaks, or even pipes sealed by calcareous scale, sediments or biological growth. This eventually affects crops irrigated with untreated water.
Disinfectants, used properly, kill dangerous bacteria and other undesirable microorganisms. Bacteria and fungi are more resistant, as is Biofilm, but with a comprehensive conditioning and control system for the water system, we can achieve effective prevention. The first objective of disinfection is the elimination of pathogenic microorganisms in the water, and the second is to prevent them from appearing during distribution through the residual effect of such disinfectants. Likewise, we ensure safe irrigation for the crops that are irrigated with water from the reservoirs.
Alternative: Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen Peroxide is applied directly to lakes and dams to control by inactivation of microalgae, in order to prevent the transmission of taste and odor to drinking water and the release of toxins during treatment at water treatment stations. In water treatment stations, the pre-oxidation stage is applied to facilitate the elimination of suspended and dissolved impurities and reduce the chlorine load applied to the treatment. In collection networks and wastewater treatment stations, hydrogen peroxide is applied to prevent the formation of unpleasant hydrogen sulfide (H2S) odors at the source. It can also be applied in the purification of rivers affected by the discharge of wastewater to avoid H2S odours. Hydrogen peroxide used in irrigation to disinfect water and prevent possible plant diseases. Controlling and reducing the growth of algae in reservoirs and irrigation systems. For this reason, Purex Biosanitizer broad-spectrum disinfectant is ideal for disinfecting water in reservoirs for irrigation systems that are applied to different crops.
