NutriServe Defoamer - Process Additives

NutriServe Defoamer is a highly effective, non-ionic, biodegradable defoaming agent designed to control and eliminate foam formation across a wide range of industrial processes and wastewater treatment applications. It performs reliably in mild acidic to highly alkaline conditions, and remains effective even under high temperature and high-pH environments.

By rapidly collapsing foam and preventing its re-formation, NutriServe Defoamer enhances process efficiency, protects equipment, and ensures smooth plant operation without contributing to deposits or system fouling.

How NutriServe Defoamer Works

​NutriServe Defoamer works by:

  • Rapidly destabilizing foam bubbles at the air-liquid interface

  • Reducing surface tension to collapse foam structure

  • Preventing re-formation of foam during continuous operation

  • Remaining inert so it does not interfere with process chemistry or biology

Its fast action (12–15 seconds) ensures quick foam suppression and stable operating conditions.

Dosage & Application Method

Note: Always follow site-specific recommendations shared by Amalgam Biotech’s technical team.

Application Method

  • ​Add NutriServe Defoamer directly to the foaming zone or process stream

  • Can be dosed manually or through automated dosing systems

  • Ensure uniform dispersion for effective foam control

  • Suitable for continuous or intermittent dosing depending on foam intensity

Dosage Guidelines

  • Dosage depends on foam severity, process conditions, and system volume

  • Being highly concentrated, only small quantities are required

  • Initial trial dosing is recommended to optimize performance

  • Final dosage should be adjusted based on real-time foam behaviour​

Safety, Handling and Storage

  • ​Store in a cool, dry place at room temperature (<30°C)

  • Keep container tightly closed when not in use

  • Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs

  • Use basic PPE such as gloves during handling

  • Keep out of reach of children and untrained personnel

  • Product is biodegradable and safe when used as directed
