H 2 S Scavenger Chemical – Introduction The world has witnessed a substantial increase in E&P of crude oil to meet the need for globalization, leading to drilling of ‘deemed undesirable’ sites, owing to the presence of higher concentration of acidic gases like hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide, etc. These hazardous gases require proper measures before disposal or scavenging. Of these, Hydrogen sulphide/ H 2 S is the most threatening one, especially in confined or ill ventilated places. The characteristic rotten egg smell makes H 2 S recognition easy even at lower concentrations. Hydrogen Sulphide is toxic, acidic and extremely corrosive at higher concentrations. Heavier than air, it is found more near base level of the working sites. Then comes its inflammability, which may cause explosive reaction with air molecules. With peroxides, ammonia and other oxidizing chemicals, H 2 S often goes through combustible reactions,

Industrial sectors like Automobiles, Manufacturing, Oilfields, and Processing facilities have huge involvement of metals and the most crucial problem they face is of corrosion. Heavy Industry metals are prone to the attacks of corrosive substances like acids, bases, oxidizing agents, caustic effects, etc., which react with the metal electrons, decreasing its metallic property and resulting in total structural damage. The financial loss caused due to corrosion per year is estimated in the range of thousands of crores and even causing threat to environmental balance. Before further elaboration, let us understand what acidic corrosion actually is and how does it affect metallic attributes? Corrosion is referred to as the deterioration of materials by chemical interaction with the corrosive agents. A common phenomenon observed in the industrial areas, Corrosion complicates the overall working and operations depending upon

This human generation is going through some tough patches related to natural resources’ depletion, Water being an important one of them. The adversity has started to grow mainly in rain fed areas where nowadays due to uncertainty of sufficient rainfall, the demand for clean water is rapidly increasing and its availability for coming time is declining even faster. The gruesome fact is that the agriculture sector is on a verge of setback, reason being its consumption of most of the available potable water and the current irrigation practices are unable to even cater to the present requirement due to dissimilar landscapes of the sub-continent and their varied soil textures. These areas still follow the ancient techniques which not only lower the effective use of water but also decrease the use of available water for crops. Scarcity of water leads to drought, financial loss and other undesirable frailties like irregular price upsurge, lower productivity, increase in agro ruins etc

Optimal use of machines is directly proportional to its engine performance. What an engine does is it converts the supplied energy into its mechanical form, driving the machine to work. Engines require one-third of total heat that is generated during conversion and the rest of the heat is needed to be evacuated from the combustion chamber which would otherwise lead to engine failure. Earlier, water was preferred as an ideal coolant for quite a period of time but the problem started to arise when the temperature would become extremely high or low, to be precise temperature more than 100 ° C and below 0°C. To get rid of this problem, coolants were formulated. Coolants are categorized chemicals that increases the boiling point of the fluid and decreases the freezing point of the fluid to make it suitable for use in extreme heat and freezing conditions. Coolants are a proportionate mixture of antifreeze and solvent, mainly glycol and water. Ideally utilized as a preventive in

Chemists around the world have shown considerable interest in various aspects of Silver Nano particles over the past few years and gained serious momentum in terms of various chemical activities, biocidal being one of them. Some of their observation says Silver has relatively wider range of biocidal (anti-bacterial and anti-fungal) pursuits than other metals. On the other hand, Hydrogen Peroxide is highly popular for its disinfecting property, reason being a strong oxidizing agent which helps in eliminating harmful microorganisms wherever used. It oxidizes the cell molecules, rupturing its whole structure and deactivating its ability to replicate. Since Hydrogen Peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent and silver shows excellent anti-microbial property, their chemical combination brings a lot to the table as a rapid yet effective disinfecting agent with limited or rather no toxicity.                                                                Hydrogen Peroxide and Silver works

Agriculture and its related industries are one of the major contributor to the economy of a nation. The industry holds the key to the food security for the continuous population increase and only source of livelihood for most of the people residing in rural areas. Shortage of water leads to drought, monetary loss and other unwanted infirmities such as price upsurge, lower productivity etc. All these may not have a rigid or cent percent solution but their affects can be tamed and neutralized through physical and chemical means. Using of super absorbent polymer on agricultural fields. This revolutionary formulation not only solve the water related problem but also upgrade the soil texture. Upon its application, it mixes up with soil particles and swells up on contact with water. This swelling up of the polymer behaves like small packets of water and imparts moisture retaining property to the roots of the plants. As soon as the conditions become dry, it starts releasing water molecul

Antifreeze helps prevent liquid from freezing in sub-zero temperatures, and preventing boil-outs above the designated boiling point of the same so that it doesn’t evaporate. A study confirms three-fifth of all engine problems are coolant-related. For an engine to operate optimally, only one-third of generated heat/ energy is required and the rest is released or transferred. If this transfer does not take place, it would lead to overheating of engine equipment, causing breakdown and/ or failure. Overheating adversely affects the engine's efficiency directly, affecting performance, fuel economy, maintenance, and longevity of vital engine components. Using recommended coolant ensures that the engine runs at an optimum temperature without any heat-related hassles. What is coolant to begin with? Coolant, derived from antifreeze chemicals are commercial grade antifreeze chemicals used in automobiles, DG sets, heavy-duty systems, etc., protecting the engine from getting dis

Polyelectrolytes are regarded as polymer chains with an electrolyte group on every repeat unit. When dissolved in a polar solvent, these polymers are charged due to dissociation of small counter ions that leave behind a charged macro ion. Polyelectrolytes include biologically important molecules such as polypeptides and DNA. These are referred to as polymers that are generally used for water purification. These are highly noted for their beneficiary nature of handling problems of slow settling of flocs in water at low temperature, treating soft colored water where they increase toughness of the flocs and enhance its settlement ability. Polyelectrolytes are formulated in a way so as to be used as coagulants and flocculants as well as a sludge dewatering agent in the waste water treatment plants. P olyelectrolyte , thereby, plays an indispensable part in the sludge conditioner formulation. Generally flocculation occurs owing to charges present on the particles. Generally, Pol

Dairy farming can be regarded as one of the very few businesses that has routed through every civilization viz. ancient, medieval and modern and the scale has been increasing with every passing year. The byproducts of this business find its place as one of the most important and regular product in daily use household ingredients. Items like milk, butter, cream, cheese, ice-cream, etc. are more or less often used by eight out of ten heads, showing the broad range it covers. If these products are processed and delivered under unhygienic or unsuitable conditions, there is a possibility to have increased microbial contamination which would directly affect the consumer health. Therefore, it is mandatory for every dairy processing plants to keep their surroundings clean and disinfected. Dairy Disinfectant , chemicals that aid in removal of harmful pathogens as well as micro-organism capable of spreading infections in the dairy products, affecting consumer’s health. Let us consider an ex
