NutriServe Magna Lime - Process Additives

NutriServe Magna Lime is a high-performance pH control and neutralization solution developed as a true alternative to conventional lime and caustic in wastewater treatment systems. Manufactured using high surface area magnesium oxide (MgO – 200 m²/gm), Magna Lime offers faster neutralization, lower sludge generation, and greater system stability.

Its superior suspension stability allows it to remain active for longer durations, making it highly efficient across STPs, ETPs, anaerobic digesters, and biogas plants where consistent pH control is critical.

NutriServe Magna Lime magnesium oxide solution for pH stabilization in wastewater treatment

NutriServe Magna Lime

Pack Size: 25 kg

NutriServe Magna Lime is made with a high surface area MgO (200m2 /gm), provides excellent neutralization speed & produces less sludge, making it a much more stable, which stays longer as a suspension.

Key Features of NutriServe Magna Lime

  • ​Made with high surface area MgO (200 m²/gm) for faster neutralization

  • Provides stable pH control throughout the treatment system

  • Remains longer in suspension for extended effectiveness

  • Produces significantly less sludge compared to lime

  • Does not require agitator in dosing tanks

  • Dosing pipelines remain choking-free

  • Non-hazardous compared to caustic soda

Benefits of Using NutriServe Magna Lime

  • ​Agitator not required in lime dosing tank

  • Dosing pipelines remain choking-free

  • Safer handling compared to caustic

  • 1 ton of lime = 0.79 ton of Magna Lime, resulting in lower sludge generation

  • Excellent sludge dewaterability

  • Improved operational stability

Benefits of Using Magna Lime in Biogas Plants

  • ​Boosts biogas volume by up to 20%

  • Increases power generation from biogas

  • Reduces soluble phosphate in final waste stream

  • Less corrosion in generators and heat exchangers

  • Extensive neutralization of H₂S odour

  • Eliminates FOG build-up in anaerobic ponds

Benefits of Using Magna Lime in Phosphorous & Heavy Metal Removal

  • ​Precise heavy metal precipitation up to <1 ppm, where lime fails

  • High affinity toward fluoride and phosphate

  • Highly effective for phosphorus removal from wastewater

  • Superior performance in heavy metal removal processes

Suitable Treatment Areas & Applications

NutriServe Magna Lime is ideal for:

  • STP & ETP pH stabilization

  • Anaerobic digesters

  • Biogas plants

  • Phosphorus removal systems

  • Heavy metal removal processes

  • Fluoride removal applications

  • Industrial wastewater treatment systems

  • Odour control for H₂S-rich streams

How NutriServe Magna Lime Works

NutriServe Magna Lime uses high-surface-area MgO to:

  • Neutralize acidic wastewater rapidly

  • Maintain stable pH over longer durations

  • Reduce sludge formation compared to lime

  • Improve downstream process efficiency

  • Support biological stability in anaerobic and aerobic systems

Its extended suspension time ensures continuous pH buffering without frequent dosing.

Dosage & Application Method

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

Application Method

  • ​Dose NutriServe Magna Lime into the neutralization or pH correction stage

  • Can be added directly into dosing tanks or process streams

  • No agitator required due to excellent suspension stability

  • Ensure uniform distribution within the system

Dosage Guidelines

  • Dosage depends on influent pH, alkalinity demand, and process requirements

  • 0.79 tons of Magna Lime replaces 1 ton of conventional lime

  • Final dosage should be optimized based on site-specific pH correction needs

  • Trial dosing is recommended for accurate optimization

Safety, Handling and Storage

  • Safer than caustic soda and easier to handle

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture

  • Keep container tightly sealed when not in use

  • Avoid inhalation of dust during handling

  • Use basic PPE such as gloves and mask

  • Keep out of reach of children and unauthorized personnel
