We offer magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)₂) for pH adjustment in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment plants. Our water treatment product is an environmentally friendly, safe, and cost-effective alternative for adjusting pH. It is designed to help our customers improve safety and optimize their processes without exceeding emission regulations.
Magnesium hydroxide prevents the formation of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), which is particularly important in anaerobic processes and wastewater transfer pipelines. A higher pH reduces the formation of hydrogen sulfide gas, which helps control the odors and corrosion that hydrogen sulfide causes in pipelines and equipment.
Magnesium hydroxide is often a more environmentally friendly option than other alkaline chemicals, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂). It does not cause sudden pH spikes and is less corrosive, which makes it safer to use in the wastewater treatment process.
The safe handling and storage of magnesium hydroxide provides a sustainable alternative. Our product buffers at a pH of approximately 9 in most waste streams. This makes pH deviations that damage biomass less likely
