Lavasol

Effectively remove inorganic scale, metals, colloids, biological growth, and organic foulants from RO membranes.

Lavasol™ liquid membrane cleaners remove a wide variety of foulants from polyamide thin-film composite and cellulose acetate membranes. Each cleaner dilutes quickly and easily to form a solution that vigorously removes membrane foulants without harming the membrane surface. A regular maintenance program including Lavasol membrane cleaners ensures optimum system performance and maximum element life.

Lavasol I

Lavasol I™ is a phosphate free, low pH cleaner designed to remove inorganic scale and metals from polyamide thin-film composite and cellulose acetate membranes.

Foulants effectively removed by Lavasol I include:

  • Iron
  • Barium Sulfate
  • Metal Oxides
  • Calcium Carbonate
  • Strontium Sulfate
  • Calcium Sulfate

Lavasol I complies with ANSI/NSF Standard 60 requirements and may be used on potable water systems.

Lavasol II

Lavasol II™ is a phosphate free, high pH cleaner designed to remove acid-insoluble foulants from polyamide thin-film composite membranes.
