White Paper: Thioguard® In Sanitary Treatment Plants And Collection Systems

Thioguard®, is an alkaline magnesium hydroxide slurry, Mg(OH)2, that is beginning to be recognized as having many advantages over the more common alkali sources, such as caustic soda and hydrated lime. Technical grade magnesium hydroxide suspensions are akin to the more familiar pharmaceutical grade "milk of magnesia" used to alleviate acid indigestion, and are therefore a safe non-hazardous product that will not cause chemical burns.
