Definitions
- the present invention relates to reactions which produce percarboxylic acid and/or anions thereof.
- the present invention further relates to a variety of methods for using percarboxylic acid and the anions thereof in a variety of applications. Further the present invention relates to controlling the growth of a variety of microorganisms.
- Bio fouling is a serious economic problem in many commercial and industrial aqueous processes and water handling systems.
- the fouling is caused by a biomass which is the build up of microorganisms and/or extracellular substances and by dirt or debris that become trapped in the biomass.
- Bacteria, fungi, yeast, diatoms, and protozoa are only some of the organisms which can cause buildup of a biomass. If not controlled, the biofouling caused by these organisms can interfere with process operations, lower the efficiency of the processes, waste energy, and reduce product quality.
- Biofilm is the buildup of layers of organisms. Cooling water systems are commonly contaminated with airborne organisms entrained by air/water contact in cooling towers as well as waterborne organisms from the systems makeup water supply. The water in such systems is generally an excellent growth medium for these organisms. If not controlled, the biofilm biofouling resulting from such growth can plug towers, block pipelines, and coat heat transfer surfaces with layers of slime, and thereby prevent proper operation and reduce equipment efficiency.
- Industrial processes subjected to problems with biofouling include those used for the manufacture of pulp, paper, paperboard, and textiles, particularly water laid non-woven fabrics.
- paper machines handle very large volumes of water in recirculating systems called '"white water systems.”
- the white water contains pulp dispersions.
- the furnish to a paper machine typically contains only about 0.5 % of fibers and non- fiberous paper making solids, which means that for each ton of paper, almost 200 tons of water passes through the paper machine, most of it being recirculated in the white water system.
- Aqueous systems such as emulsions, suspensions, or solutions containing organic material are also highly subject to microbiological attack.
- aqueous systems include dyes, latexes, paint, surfactants, dispersants, stabilizers, thickeners, adhesives, starches, waxes, proteins, emulsifying agents, detergents, cellulose products, resins, metalworking fluids, cooling tower fluids, papermill liquids, tanning liquors, and recreational aqueous systems, i.e., pools, spas, and the like.
- Slime can reduce yields from industrial processes using aqueous systems and render recreational aqueous systems unsuitable for use.
- Slime consists of matted deposits of microorganisms, fibers, and debris and may be stringy, pasty, rubbery, tapioca-like or hard and may have a characteristic undesirable odor that is different from that of aqueous liquid systems in which it is formed.
- the microbiological contaminates involved in slime formation are primarily different species of spore-forming and non spore-forming bacteria, particularly capsulated forms of bacteria that secrete gelatinous substances that envelop or encase the cells.
- Slime microorganisms also include filamentous bacteria, fungi of the mold type, yeast, and yeast-like organisms.
- the microbiological organisms responsible for biological fouling of various aqueous systems include various bacterial, fungi, mildews, algaes. and the like.
- various industrial microbiocides are used. Workers in the trade have continued to seek improved biocides that have low toxicity and are capable of exhibiting a prolonged biocidal effect against a wide variety of microorganisms at normal use.
- stringent environmental and safety regulations as well as escalating development cost have created a need for new microbicidal agents selected from known safe and economical materials.
- peracetic acid was previously used essentially in the food industries at high concentrations. In the food industries, peracetic acid is used as a sterilant. Until recently, peracetic acid has also been used in combination with other biocides to yield synergistic effects. Peracetic acid has also been an unpopular component in controlling microorganisms especially in industrial water systems due to the significant explosive nature of peracetic acid. At especially high concentrations, peracetic acid can be quite explosive and there have been instances where explosions have occurred. Since peracetic acid is typically transported at high concentrations, users typically introduce high concentrations in their industrial water systems (since trying to dilute peracetic acid can also be a dangerous operation which again can lead to explosions). Thus, those skilled in the art have been quite cautious with the use of peracetic acid as a component in biocides due to this problem.
