Abstract
The present invention relates to water treatment. In one example, there is provided a method of treating an aqueous system to inhibit growth of one or more micro-organisms therein and/or to reduce the number of live micro-organisms therein. The method includes adding treatment agents to said aqueous system, wherein said treatment agents include: (a) a phosphonium compound; and (b) a stabilised halogen containing composition.
Claims20
A method of treating an aqueous system to inhibit growth of one or more micro-organisms therein and/or to reduce the number of live micro-organisms therein, wherein the method comprises adding treatment agents to said aqueous system and wherein said treatment agents comprise:
- (a) a phosphonium compound;
- and
- (b) a stabilised halogen containing composition.
A method of treating an aqueous system to inhibit growth of one or more micro-organisms therein and/or to reduce the number of live micro-organisms therein, wherein the method comprises adding treatment agents to said aqueous system and wherein said treatment agents comprise:
- (i) tri n-butyl n-tetradecyl phosphonium chloride (TTPC);
- and
- (ii) bromosulfamate.
A method of treating an aqueous system to inhibit growth of one or more micro-organisms therein and/or to reduce the number of live micro-organisms therein, wherein the method comprises adding treatment agents to said aqueous system and wherein said treatment agents comprise:
- (i) tri n-butyl n-tetradecyl phosphonium chloride (TTPC);
- and
