Slime control in paper machine shower water systems with unique chemical-free electro-technology - It is a viable alternative to current chemical methods

A unique capacitance based technology has been demonstrated effective for p reventing the plugging of paper machine shower water nozzles by microbial s lime, A major cost reduction was accomplished by replacing chemical biocide treatment with an installation of the Zeta Rod(TM) deposit control system. The new technology functions by causing rapid super-hydration of existing biological slime deposits and by presenting thr attachment of free-floating bacteria onto surfaces where they would colonize causing flow obstructions and corrosive deposits.
