AQUCAR™ Water Treatment Microbiocides
Water use and re-use is exceptionally beneficial in extraction processes, especially as water sources become more scarce and expensive. AQUCAR microbiocides fight a wide spectrum of bacteria and fungi to keep your processes running efficiently.

Without effective treatment, biofilm and biofouling microbial contamination can cause corrosion, souring and plugging of wells and reservoirs, reducing flow rates. AQUCAR products help minimize bacteria, algae and biofilm formation, aid in the prevention of microbially influenced corrosion and reduce well and reservoir souring.

AQUCAR products have all been rigorously tested, registered and approved for use by leading authorities, including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and HOCNF. Whether you need products in liquid or solid form, want the convenience of jugs or water-soluble bags, we have a product to fit your needs.
