nir-vana innovation network

In 1976 a unique technology (first and one-of-a-kind in the world) for the production of polyaluminium chloride based on dissolution of metallic aluminium by Hydrochloric acid in internal electrolysis conditions has been patented. In 1994 the basic technology has been further developed and the new generation high-efficiency complex coagulant-flocculant-sorbent has been introduced as a universal means of coagulation, flocculation and sorption of a wide range of dissolved and suspended substances: dispersoids, plankton, and humus compounds; petroleum products; other organic and inorganic substances.
Its efficiency has been proved in cleaning water in numerous Drinking & Waste Water Treatment Plants and in lots of Industrial applications. It is also a solution for applications, such as:
- A suitable pre-treatment reagent of raw water for membrane water treatment systems, boiler and cooling tower waters;
- Mining industry; smelters, paper production, etc.;
- Wastewater from ships (bilge water);
- Animal farms and Food processing (dairy production, meat processing, etc.);
- Emergency situations and Natural disaster relief;
- Outdoor activities, as well as for swimming pools treatment, etc.
Bulgarian company will support the distributor through trainings, advertisement material, joint meetings with important potential and existing clients, methodology for laboratory or industrial product tests and other support, if requested.
Distribution services agreement is the most appropriate form for long term cooperation, since both parties will be interested to reach the agreed common targets.

Advantages & innovations

This complex Coagulant-Flocculant-Sorbent is a preferred solution due to the following advantageous characteristics: - Toxic elements removal (As) Arsenic, (Pb) Lead, (Cu) Copper, (Cd) Cadmium, (U) Uranium, (Mn) Manganese, (Zn) Zink, (Cr) Chromium, etc.) - Does not change the рН of the treated water; - Wide optimum range of pH, applicable doses and temperature; - Removes the causes of trihalomethane formation; - The coagulation goes well at lower temperature and lower turbidity; - Does NOT contain polymer additives; - At least two times faster filter-washing time; - There is no residual aluminum in the treated water! Due to its extremely high efficiency, the use of this complex Coagulant-Flocculant-Sorbent for drinking water treatment requires substantially lower application rates (dosages) - in normal conditions (pH 7-9, etc.), an average application rate (dosage) is approx. 10 times less than the comparative products. This complex Coagulant-Flocculant-Sorbent could also be successfully combined with other organic flocculants, thus further extending its fields of application and efficiency. It does not require any additional investments to or modification of the existing infrastructure/equipment. It utilizes any existing sand filter, or similar water treatment filtration devices, irrespective of capacity – both for private (home) and public purposes. The ratio price/worth is the most favorable in comparison with the competitors of similar products. This company is the only provider of the product.

Stage of development

Already on the market

Partner sought

Type: The company is looking to cooperate with distributors in EU and UK that are dealing with products used in treatment of drinking water, sewage and industrial effluents. Usually, among the clients of such distributor are: - Public/ municipal entities or concessioners of drinking water providers; - Operators of waste water cleaning facilities, both household and mixed; - Operators of processed and waste industrial water cleaning facilities: agri-food industry, agriculture, river and sea ports; - Operators of swimming pools, water amusement parks. Role: The future partner will actively promote the product within its sales network, during events and through direct marketing. It will monitor and apply in public procurements.
