  1. ULTRA BIOCID Technical Presentation

  2. Purpose/Description • Ultra Biocid is used for the lowering of pH in chemical treatment solutions. • Ultra Biocid is clear, 100% water soluble product. • Ultra Biocid is targeted to replace traditional organic and inorganic acids.

  3. Advantages • Environmentally smart: Low BOD/COD when compared to acetic and other organic acids. Safe to handle (unlike mineral acids) No-Odor/ No VOC’s Strength of a strong acid without safety concerns. Cost effective vs total cost of using other acids. No heating upon dilution (unlike other strong acids).

  4. Technical Specifications Ultra Biocid Normality 16.31 Density (g/ml) 1.53 pH <1.0 Freezing Point <-10C

  8. Titrations

  9. Titrations: Ultra Biocid(Adjusted strength to equal 56% acetic acid)

  10. Uses • Some examples of Uses are: • Pre-treatment bath pH adjustment • After-treatment bath pH adjustment • Waste stream pH adjustment • Bleach neutralization (souring) • Metals Manufacturing • Substitution for most Industrial mineral Acids • Many more......

  11. Environmental • Ultra Biocid does not contain any chemicals currently on the EPA’s Extremely Hazardous Substance List or the Toxic Chemicals List, Sara Title III section 302 or 313. • It is EPA Section 304,311 and 312 regulated because the pH is less than 2.0.

  12. Storage • Ultra Biocid can be stored in 316 stainless steel, high density polyethylene or polypropylene containers. • UCI International Inc. has been using the same tanker (316 stainless) and pipelines for over 7 years with Ultra Biocid and have had NO corrosion problems.

  13. Shipping • Ultra Biocid is NOTregulated by any of the following Transportation agencies: • D.O.T. • I.A.T.A. • I.M.D.G. • T.D.G • For Air Transportation: D.O.T. Regulates as ORM-B, NOS; NA1760

  14. Conclusion • Ultra Biocid ‘s pH adjustment chemistry can provide a cost effective alternative to traditional organic and mineral acids. While improving overall safety of the workplace, employees and the environment.

  15. ULTRA BIOCID-GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS • SAFETY 1- VERY SAFE PRODUCT WHICH HAS NO ODOR, FUMES OR VAPOR PRESSURE 2- NO AFFINITY FOR HUMAN FLESH- WILL CAUSE NO BURNS OR BLISTERING- SEE DERMAL IRRITATION TESTS 3- EASY STORAGE; REQUIRES NO SPECIAL HANDLING OR CONTAINERS 4- NO FUMES MEANS NO CORROSION WHEN USED AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURES- SEE METAL CORROSION TESTS 5- NO MUTAGENICITY- SEE AMES ASSAY 6- NON TOXIC-LD-50 1121 mg/kg(RATS, ORAL) 7- NO HEAT LIBERATION UPON DILUTION

  16. ULTRA BIOCID- GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS • ENVIRONMENTAL 1- VERY LOW BOD/COD- MUCH LOWER THAN ACETIC AND CITRIC ACID 2- CONTAINS NO PHOSPHATES, CHLORIDES, ETC. 3- NOT KNOWN TO INCREASE WASTEWATER DISCHARGE LIMITS

  17. ULTRA BIOCID- GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS • ECONOMY 1- COMPETITIVE AGAINST MOST COMMONLY USED ACIDS 2- NEW US PATENTED TECHNOLOGY

  18. NEUTRALIZATION OF CAUSTIC TREATED DENIM DENIM FABRIC SUBJECTED TO HIGH AMOUNTS OF CAUSTIC (NaOH 50%) WILL EXHIBIT FACE AND BATH pH’s OF APPROXIMATELY 12.0 – 13.0 AS THESE GOODS ARE PROCESSED ON A CONTINUOUS WASH RANGE, A WIDE ARRAY OF pH RANGES MAY BE ADJUSTED USING ULTRA BIOCID

  19. NEUTRALIZATION OF CAUSTIC TREATED DENIM • PROCEDURE • INTO THE FIRST OR SECOND WASH BOX A CONTINUOUS FEED OF ULTRA BIOCID IS INTRODUCED PLUS WASH WATER WHICH IS ALLOWED TO OVERFLOW. THE AMOUNT OF ULTRA BIOCID ADDED IS DETERMINED BY THE DESIRED FABRIC FINISH pH REQUIRED, THE MACHINE SPEED AND TO A LESSER DEGREE THE FABRIC WEIGHT. AS AN EXAMPLE, MOST DENIM WILL REQUIRE AN ULTRA BIOCID ADJUSTED BATH pH OF APPROXIMATELY 1.5 – 2.0 @ A MACHINE SPEED OF 60 – 80 YPM

  20. NEUTRALIZATION OF CAUSTIC TREATED DENIM • PROCEDURE CONTINUED UNDER THESE OPERATING CONDITIONS, EXIT FABRIC FACE pH’S WILL EQUAL APPROXIMATELY 8.0 – 9.5 IN-PLANT ADJUSTMENTS OF THE ULTRA BIOCID FLOW RATE WILL ALLOW THE WASHER OPERATOR TO ACHIEVE ANY pH RANGE DESIRED BECAUSE ULTRA BIOCID HAS NO VAPOR PRESSURE, EXTREMELY STEADY AND LEVEL pH RANGES ARE POSSIBLE WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER ACID SOURCES

  21. NEUTRALIZATION OF CAUSTIC TREATED DENIM • MAINTENANCE IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT ALL PROCESS EQUIPMENT BE CLEANED AND RINSED FREE OF ANY RESIDUAL ULTRA BIOCID AFTER PROCESS IS COMPLETE SO AS NOT TO ALLOW DRIED SALTS TO REMAIN ON EQUIPMENT. IF DRIED SALTS ARE EXPOSED TO HIGH TEMPERATURES OVER A SUSTAINED PERIOD OF TIME, THE POSSIBILITY OF CORROSION MAY OCCUR. SIMPLE CLEANING WITH WATER WILL ELIMINATE THIS POSSIBLE CONDITION SINCE THESE ACID SALTS WILL READILY DISSOLVE.

  22. LABORATORY TESTING

  23. BIOCID TESTING • DUE TO ULTRA BIOCID’S UNIQUE CHEMISTRY, SOME MINOR DIFFERENCES MAY BE NOTED DURING LAB EVALUATIONS • AS COMPARED TO ACETIC ACID, FOR EXAMPLE, ULTRA BIOCID’S BUFFER POINT IS APPROXIMATELY 2.0 AND ACETIC ACID IS APPROXIMATELY 3.8 • BECAUSE OF THE BUFFER DIFFERENCES, CUSTOMERS USUALLY ATTEMPT TO ADJUST ULTRA BIOCID BY ADDITIONAL STRENGTH CUTS WHICH WILL LEAD TO INCONSISTENT pH READINGS AND ERRONOUS RESULTS

  24. BIOCID TESTING- CONTINUED • WE STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT THE AMOUNTS OF ULTRA BIOCID RECOMMENDED BE FOLLOWED IN ALL CASES AS IT WILL SAVE VALUABLE LAB TIME AND MINIMIZE MISTAKES • BIOCID’S LOWER BUFFER POINT WILL REACH EQUILIBRIUM VERY QUICKLY AS IT DISASSOCIATES WHICH WILL EQUATE THE ACID BEING TESTED • SEE CHART AND GRAPHS FOR ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE • ULTRA BIOCID IS EASILY BLENDED WITH WATER TO THE REQUIRED pH STRENGTHS WITH INCREDIBLE SAFETY AND EASE OF HANDLING

  25. BIOCID DYEBATH pH ADJUSTMENTS

  26. BIOCID DYEBATH pH ADJUSTMENTS • BIOCID WILL READILY AND SAFELY ADJUST DYEBATH pH RANGES • BIOCID MAY BE USED ON ANY DYEING EQUIPMENT AND FOR ANY FIBER AND FIBER BLENDS • EXAMPLES OF DYE EQUIPMENT INCLUDE JETS, PACKAGE MACHINES, BECKS, BEAMS, HOSIERY MACHINES OF ALL TYPES, CONTINUOUS DYE RANGES, ETC. • BIOCID EXHIBITS NO UNUSUAL SPECTRA SHIFTS WHEN USED AS RECOMMENDED – NO DIFFERENCES IN DYE YIELDS NOTED. • SEE CHARTS FOR STRENGTH COMPARISONS OF VARIOUS ACIDS

  27. BIOCID STRENGTH VS VARIOUS ACIDS

  28. 10 ml ACETIC ACID (GLACIAL)--------- 10 ml ACETIC ACID (84%)-------------- 10 ml ACETIC ACID (70%)-------------- 10 ml ACETIC ACID (56%)-------------- 10 ml ACETIC ACID (20%)-------------- 10 ml FORMIC ACID---------------------- 10 ml PHOSPHORIC ACID--------------- 10 ml SULFAMIC ACID (15%)---------- 10 ml OXALIC ACID---------------------- 10 ml CITRIC (50%)--------------------- 10 ml SULFURIC ACID(70%)----------- 10 ml BIOCID 7 ml BIOCID 5 ml BIOCID 4 ml BIOCID 2 ml BIOCID 10 ml BIOCID 10 ml BIOCID 3 ml BIOCID 11 ml BIOCID 5 ml BIOCID 11 ml BIOCID BIOCID STRENGTH VS VARIOUS ACIDS TABLE #1

  29. BIOCID STRENGTH VS VARIOUS ACIDS • ALL STRENGTH COMPARISONS ARE TO BE USED AS GENERAL GUIDES ONLY • LABORATORY TESTING IS SUGGESTED TO VERIFY COMPARISONS

  30. BIOCID’S USE IN WASTEWATER

  31. BIOCID’S USE IN WASTEWATER • ULTRA BIOCID IS WIDELY USED TO TREAT PLANT AND MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER WHEN pH ADJUSTMENTS ARE REQUIRED • BECAUSE ULTRA BIOCID HAS VERY LOW BOD/COD REQUIREMENTS, AND CONTAINS NO PHOSPHATES, MANY CUSTOMERS USE BIOCID TO ASSIST IN THEIR WASTEWATER TREATMENT • BIOCID WILL REPLACE SULFURIC ACID AND ALSO CARBON DIOXIDE GAS • BIOCID IS NORMALLY ADDED AT THE LAST WASTEWATER DISCHARGE EXIT TO CONTROL pH AND BOD/COD
