With Standard Chlorine + BiCARBUS Activation, Chlorination gets better performance for less money and less effort. Water Authorities can save up to 30% in their production costs by implementing Activation. BiCARBUS "Activation" injected into any water supply system will remove all existing biofilm and scale deposits to allow for a microbial free environment from the source to the premise plumbing.MICROBES DEFEND AGAINST DISINFECTION / BACTERIA ORGANIZE / ACTIVATION DISORGANIZES BACTERIA Organisms biomineralize defensive layers (scale) where microbes thrive, and oxidants (chlorine) cannot penetrate. Studies Established Quorum Sensing leads to Gene Expression. There are four main steps: 1. Individual bacteria create signal molecules (autoinducers).2. They then expel those signal molecules. 3. Each cell has receptors that are satisfied at certain concentrations. 4. This combined information results in Quorum Gene Expression. BiCARBUS ACTIVATION OBSTRUCTS ONE OR MORE OF THE ABOVE STEPS!GENE EXPRESSION ~ BIOMINERALIZATION / MICROBES BEHAVE DIFFERENTLY WHEN IN A QUORUM THAN AS INDIVIDUALS Scaling, which is accumulated biofilm, is caused in the same way, organized microbes produce "resistivity" or permanence within a circuit by creating mineral scale shelters that dramatically reduce efficiencies and increase operational costs. Using the common traditional methods of treatment (alternating biocides between oxidants and nonoxidants along with biodispersants to limit CFUs) is simply ineffective because Quorum Sensing persists.NSF-60 Certified BiCARBUS disrupts quorum sensing by stopping bacterial communication at ambient pH (7+ nonacid), and as the greenest product on the market! This also means that the microorganisms that cause scaling are deactivated and existing scaling simply comes apart (releases), which prevents ongoing scale accumulation.Disinfectant resistant bacteria (DRB) persist in every water system–period!
