Many different microbes have demonstrated the ability to survive in water distribution systems with some possessing the ability to grow and/or produce biofilm. Primary pathogens survive and protect themselves in it , ultimately becoming part of this biofilm, and often displaying more reisitance against conventional approaches for example thermal disinfection or traditional chemical solutions. The presence of biofilms play a significant role in harboring and providing favorable conditions in which Legiionella pneumophilia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa may grow posing a serious health risk. Factors contributing to waterborne outbreaks include contaminated bunkered water, dead legs and stagnation, cross connections between potable and non-potable water, improper loading procedures, poor design and construction of potable water storage tanks and inadequate disinfection.
Our products prevent and/or hinders the growth of microbiological activity in water. A continuous inoculation with NADES and NADES 2.0 disinfects through the chlorination oxidation reaction of RNA/DNA destroying the Extra cellular Polymeric Sustenance`s (EPS) of a biofilm. This EPS layer protects the microorganisms present in the biofilm and facilitates the transport of nutrients. Biofilm control is one of the important objective for ensuring that water delivered to the guests is of the highest quality.
