Many water treatment consultants would have faced this situation . Pseudomonas Nil when measured in the presence of residual chlorine . But the moment you use SMBS and remove the residual chlorine , the Pseudomonas reappears . This is not uncommon if you know the behavioral pattern of these gram negative pathogens . They become sessile under unfavorable conditions and proliferate when the conditions are in their favor . When you use ozone in these conditions you need to be very careful and consider various factors to ensure total removal of these pathogens. Many solution providers resort to high ozone dose without really taking care the root cause
We have successfully provided solutions to many Pharmaceutical companies and shown how this should be done. Merely introducing high doses of ozone will have very little effect. Residual chlorine in process water does not mean that you have eradicated gram negative pathogens . Contact OTSIL for reliable solutions in these situations .
