Abstract:
Methods for the use of peracid compositions having decreased hydrogen peroxide concentration for various water treatments, including oil- and gas-field operations, and/or other aseptic treatments are disclosed. In numerous aspects, peracetic acid is the preferred peracid and is treated with a peroxide-reducing agent to substantially reduce the hydrogen peroxide content. Methods for using the treated peracid compositions for treatment of drilling fluids, frac fluids, flow back waters and disposal waters are also disclosed for improving water condition, reducing oxidizing damage associated with hydrogen peroxide and/or reducing bacteria infestation.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions, methods of making and their use as cleaning composition and/or antimicrobial agent, for example in the field of cold aseptic filling (CAF), that are effective at lower concentration, having improved wetting and rinsing properties, wherein the liquid composition comprises a mixture of: a) a C6 to C22 sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid, b) a C1 to C4 percarboxylic acid, c) a C5 to C10 percarboxylic acid, d) a peroxide agent, e) a liquid; wherein the composition comprises free sulfocarboxylic acid, free C1 to C4 carboxylic acid and free C5 to C10 carboxylic acid, wherein the weight ratio of C6 to C22 sulfocarboxylic acid to C6 to C22 sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid is about 0.1:1 to about 25:1.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions, methods of making and their use as cleaning composition, as antimicrobials and/or bleaching agent having improved storage stability and effective at lower concentration, wherein the liquid, storage stable composition comprises a mixture of: a) a sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid, b) a C1 to C4 percarboxylic acid, c) a C5 to C10 percarboxylic acid, d) a peroxide agent, e) a hydrotrope, f) an acidulant, g) a liquid; wherein the composition comprises free sulfocarboxylic acid, free C1 to C4 carboxylic acid and free C5 to C10 carboxylic acid.
Abstract:
Peracid stable fluorescent active compounds in highly acidic, equilibrium peroxycarboxylic acid sanitizing compositions are disclosed as having improved fluorescent stability allowing for monitoring of peroxycarboxylic acid concentration by conductivity and/or optical sensors. Beneficially, the compositions are also low odor and low/no VOC dual functioning acid wash and sanitizing compositions.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to novel sulfoperoxycarboxylic acid compounds, and methods for making and using them. The sulfoperoxycarboxylic compounds of the invention are storage stable, water soluble and have low to no odor. Further, the compounds of the present invention can be formed from non-petroleum based renewable materials. The compounds of the present invention can be used as antimicrobials, and bleaching agents. The compounds of the present invention are also suitable for use as coupling agents.
Abstract:
Peroxyformic acid compositions for removal of biofilm growth and other contaminants and impurities from industrial processing hard surfaces are disclosed. In particular, peroxyformic acid compositions may be dosed on site and/or generated in situ for the reduction and prevention of biofilms on the hard surfaces. Methods of employing the peroxyformic acid compositions for removal of biofilm growth and other impurities such as aldehydes and alcohols from industrial CO2 effluent are also disclosed which beneficially provide ambient biofilm control and break down more rapidly than other peracids, allowing for extended runs between CIP cleaning, including a reduction and/or elimination of cleaning of the scrubbers and other industrial surfaces.
Abstract:
Stabilized peroxide-containing compositions stabilized with urea and urea/chelator stabilizer blends are provided. The compositions are particularly suitable for, but not limited to, cleaning applications on surfaces within food and beverage industries which may require the use of materials that are acceptable for incidental food/food products/feed contact. Further, the stabilized compositions are particularly suitable for applications requiring materials that are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) or for applications where non-GRAS materials must be minimized. Methods of stabilizing peroxide-containing compositions and methods of using the compositions are also provided.
