Membrane scaling happens when minerals like calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, or silica build up on the surface of RO membranes. Over time, this buildup can reduce system performance and increase operational issues.

Choosing the right antiscalant is essential for keeping both seawater and brackish water RO plants running smoothly. When the proper product is used and applied correctly, it helps the system operate at peak efficiency, lowers energy and maintenance costs, reduces how often cleaning is needed, and extends the lifespan of the membranes. This ultimately leads to more reliable performance and better overall water quality.
By keeping these factors in mind and selecting the right antiscalant for the system, water treatment plants can control scale more effectively, lower operating costs through energy savings and fewer cleanings, and extend the life of their RO membranes. This ultimately helps maintain consistent, high-quality water for a wide range of applications.

High performance, has been formulated as a broad spectrum, threshold scale inhibitor for high brackish system.This is tolerant of a wide range of operating conditions, facilitating optimum reliability of the membrane separation system.
TIG Group 310-BLPH® is a versatile liquid antiscalant and antifoulant designed for use in both RO and NF systems. This concentrated phosphonate formulation is highly effective at controlling a broad range of inorganic scale-forming minerals. It also helps stabilize and sequester trivalent metal ions, preventing them from depositing on the membrane surface.
It is suitable for feed water sources such as seawater and brackish water, making it a reliable choice for various desalination and water treatment applications.
Antiscalant, High salt rejection system. TIG Group 310 HSG has been formulated as a broad spectrum, threshold scale inhibitor for high salt rejection system, tolerant of a wide range of operating conditions, facilitating optimum reliability of the membrane separation system.
TIG Group 310-BLPH+ is a broad-spectrum, low-phosphorus antiscalant designed for potable seawater RO and NF systems of all sizes. Its advanced formulation inhibits a wide range of scaling minerals, allowing plants to operate at higher recovery rates without compromising performance. Ideal for seawater feed sources, this product helps maintain stable system operation, reduces cleaning frequency, and supports long-term membrane protection.
Antiscalants must be compatible with the membrane material to ensure safe and efficient operation. Using the wrong type of antiscalant can lead to membrane damage or reduced system performance. Since different membrane types—such as those used in nanofiltration or reverse osmosis—have unique chemical tolerances, it’s important to choose an antiscalant specifically formulated for the membrane in use.
Getting the dosing right is essential for an antiscalant to work effectively. Adding too much can waste chemicals and may even cause membrane fouling, while adding too little won’t provide enough protection against scale formation. Maintaining the correct dosage ensures optimal system performance and longer membrane life.
Some antiscalants also work as dispersants, meaning they help keep tiny scale particles suspended in the water instead of letting them stick to the membrane surface. This added benefit helps reduce fouling and supports better overall system performance.
Antiscalants perform best within a certain pH range. Knowing the pH and alkalinity of the feed water is important because it helps you choose an antiscalant that will work effectively under those specific conditions. Using a product that matches the water chemistry ensures better scale control and more reliable system performance.
