Abstract:
The present invention relates to certain processes and compositions useful for inhibiting the growth of slime in water and, in particular, water used for industrial purposes; for example, in the manufacture of pulp paper, in the manufacture of paper, in cooling water systems and in effluent water treatment. The novel processes and compositions of the present invention are processes or mixtures which show unexpected synergistic activity against microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi and algae, which produce slime in aqueous systems of bodies which are objectionable from either an operational or aesthetic point of view. Specifically, the invention is directed to the use of compositions comprising a combination of N-2-nitrobutylmorpholine and N-alkyl-dimethyl-benzyl ammonium chloride, containing from 10 to 14 carbons.
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method of controlling deposition during the scrubbing of waste flue gases derived from blast furnace iron producing operations. The invention specifically calls for the spraying of the flue gases with an aqueous medium containing the combination comprising in a weight ratio basis of 1:10 to 10:1 of an acrylic acid polymer having an average number molecular weight of from about 750 to about 100,000 and an organo-phosphonate having the chemical formula:
WHERE M IS AN INTEGER OF 1 TO 10, R is hydrogen or alkyl of 1:4 carbonatoms and M is hydrogen or a water-soluble cation. The aqueous medium ideally should contain from about 0.5 to about 100 parts per million of the combination.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to certain processes and compositions useful for inhibiting and/or controlling the growth of slime in water and, in particular, water employed for industrial purposes. Water employed in the manufacture of pulp paper and water employed in cooling water systems, as well as other industrial waters, provide environments which are conducive to slime formation. The novel compositions of the present invention are mixtures which show unexpected synergistic activity against microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi and algae, which produce slime in aqueous systems. The slime, of course, is objectionable from an operational and/or an aesthetic point of view. Specifically, the invention is directed to and the use of compositions comprising a combination of 5-chloro-4-phenyl-1,2dithiole-3-one and phenolic compounds(or mixtures thereof). The inventive compositions inhibit the growth of slime in water, or more specifically, possess biocidal activity against bacteria, fungi and/or algae. The phenolic compounds contemplated for use in accordance with the present invention are those phenolic compounds which possess the capacity to kill or inhibit the growth of slime-forming microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi and algae. The type phenolic compounds encompassed by the present invention may be exemplified by: phenol, ortho-phenylphenol, 2, 3, 4, 6-tetrachlorophenol, 4-chloro-2-cyclopentylphenol and 2chloro-4-phenylphenol.

Abstract:
THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO CERTAIN PROCESSES AND COMPOSITIONS USEFUL FOR INHIBITING THE GROWTH OF SLIME IN WATER AND, IN PARTICULAR, WATER USED FOR INDUSTRIAL PURPOSES; FOR EXAMPLE, IN THE MANUFACTURE OF PULP PAPER, IN THE MANUFACTURE OF PAPER, IN COOLING WATER SYSTEMS AND IN EFFLUENT WATER TREATMENT. THE NOVEL PROCESSES AND COMPOSITIONS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION ARE PROCESS OR MIXTURES WHICH SHOWS UNEXPECTED SYNERGISTIC ACTIVITY AGAINST MICROORGANISMS, INCLUDING BACTERIA, FUNGI AND ALGAE, WHICH PRODUCE SLIME IN AQUEOUS SYSTEMS OR BODIES WHICH ARE OBJECTIONABLE FROM EITHER AN OPERATIONAL OR AESTHETIC POINT OF VIEW. SPECIFICALLY, THE INVENTION IS DIRECTED TO THE USE OF COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING A CONBINATION OF A BROMONITROSTYRENE AND CETYL PYRIDINIUM BROMIDE.
Abstract:
THE PRESENT INVENTION RELATES TO CERTAIN PROCESSES AND COMPOSITIONS USEFUL FOR INHIBITING AND/OR CONTROLLING THE GROWTH OF SLIME IN WATER AND, IN PARTICULAR, WATER EMPLOYED FOR INDUSTRIAL PURPOSES. WATER EMPOLYED IN COOLANUFACTURE OF PULP PAPER AND WATER EMPLOYED IN COOLING WATER SYSTEMS, AS WELL AS OTHER INDUSTRIAL WATERS, PROVIDE ENVIRONMENT WHICH ARE CONDUCTIVE TO SLIME FROMATION. THE NOVEL COMPOSITIONS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION ARE MIXTURES WHICH SHOW UNEXPECTED SYNERGISTIC ACTIVITY AGAINST MICROORGANISMS, INCLUDING BACTERIA, FUNGI AND ALGAE, WHICH PRODUCE SILIME IN AQUEOUS SYSTEMS. THE SLIME, OF COURSE, IS OBJECTIONABLE FROM AN OPERATIONAL AND/OR AN AESTHETIC POINT OF VIEW. SPECIFICALLY, THE INVENTION IS DIRECTED TO AND THE USE OF COMPOSITION COMPRISING A COMBINATION OF 3,3,4,4-TETRACHLOROTETRAHYDROTHIOPHENE1,1-DIOXIDE (OR DERIVATIVES THEREOF) AND BIS(TRI-N-BUTYL TIN) OXIDE. THE INVENTIVE COMPOSITIONS INHIBIT THE GROWTH OF SLIME IN WATER, OR MORE SPECIFICALLY, POSSESS BIOCIDAL ACTIVITY AGAINST BACTERIA, FUNGI AND/OR ALGAE.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to a method for determining the zinc concentration in an aqueous medium. More specifically, the method is directed for use to aqueous mediums which contain contaminated and perhaps interfering metal ions, such as the cations of aluminum, iron and copper. According to the method, the sample of the aqueous medium is acidified, treated with a buffered complexing agent to complex any aluminum and iron ions present, treated with an organo-sulfur compound which will complex with any copper ions present and discriminate against any zinc ions present. An indicator compound which will react with the zinc to produce a color has been added to the aqueous medium and the color intensity of the resulting solution is ascertained. The color intensity is then compared with the color intensity of known quantities of zinc and the indicator compound, and the concentration of the zinc is ascertained accordingly.
