Free chlorine, which is present in high concentrations in municipal water supplies to ensure microbiological safety, is essential for human health but is highly corrosive to sensitive water treatment equipment. Sodium Metabisulfite (SMBS) is an inorganic, powerful antioxidant chemical used in the water treatment industry to neutralize free chlorine and protect costly treatment investments.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"color:var(--wp--preset--color--main)\" class=\"wp-block-safirtema-mainheading has-text-color\">\n\t<div class=\"singleHeading\">\n\t\t<div class=\"inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"text\">What Are Their Functions in Water Treatment Systems?<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sodium metabisulfite serves two key preservative functions in industrial facilities:<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"color:var(--wp--preset--color--main)\" class=\"wp-block-safirtema-mainheading has-text-color\">\n\t<div class=\"singleHeading\">\n\t\t<div class=\"inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text\">Maintenance of Reverse Osmosis (RO) Membranes<\/h3>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thin-film composite (polyamide) membranes used in reverse osmosis systems are extremely susceptible to chlorine. Even very low levels of free chlorine in the water can quickly burn through the membrane\u2019s structure, causing irreversible damage. SMBS acts as an excellent reverse osmosis chlorine remover when injected into the water immediately before the membranes, thereby ensuring the membranes\u2019 service life.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"color:var(--wp--preset--color--main)\" class=\"wp-block-safirtema-mainheading has-text-color\">\n\t<div class=\"singleHeading\">\n\t\t<div class=\"inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"text\">Prevention of Microbial Growth<\/h3>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is used as a protective solution to prevent bacterial and fungal growth not only during active treatment but also during extended shutdowns (standby) of treatment plants or during the storage of membranes.
