Here are a few ways we’ve helped our customers:

In Anaerobic Digestion, a skilled operator employs bacteria to process waste materials into useful co-products including methane biofuel and reclaimed water. However, uncontrolled accumulation of acids can lead to a pH drop and digester souring, a situation when bacteria become unhealthy or die. Milk of Magnesia is used here to provide controlled and buffered operation.

In Aerobic Digestion, microorganisms convert organic matter to gas and water. Here too, an out of control process can lead to a low pH which can be detrimental to the bacteria which are sensitive to pH conditions. Industrial grade "milk of magnesia" is used here!

In a chemical plant, FloMag^® H magnesium hydroxide slurry neutralizes organic acids (such as Maleic or Fumaric) to a steady buffered pH acceptable to downstream industrial and municipal biological treatment. Another alkali overshot pH and killed the "bugs" resulting in a plant shutdown! That is unlikely to happen with FloMag^® H due to its buffering ability.

Winery, Brewery, and Alcohol Distillery wastewaters can be strongly acidic due to the high content of Volatile Organic Acids (VOCs), high COD (chemical oxygen demand) and high BOD (biological oxygen demand). Fermentation markets employ FloMag^® for condensate or wastewater treatment.

Strong acids such as sulfuric acid and others may be used or created during inorganic chemical manufacturing, for metalloid processing, in oil refining, and in the metals and mining sector. FloMag^® H magnesium hydroxide slurry neutralizes acidic wastewater and gas. FloMag^® H magnesium hydroxide precipitation of heavy metals has successfully removed dissolved metals such as: Al, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn, etc. while creating no gypsum sludge! Ask us how!

Every day, Martin Marietta Magnesia Specialties helps our semiconductor customers treat wastewater burdened with Hydrofluoric Acid and Silica. They keep coming back because FloMag^® H works!
