Corrosion Control

For oil and gas applications, Biocide Enhancer targets sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), the primary cause of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). While water injection doesn’t create SRB, it can amplify their growth, persistence, and impact by introducing them into ideal subsurface environments.

How It Works

  • Enhances existing biocide treatments by disrupting SRB biofilms, improving kill efficiency, and allowing for lower dosages of hazardous chemicals.

  • Soluble copper ions (Cu²⁺) in our stable formulation suppress SRB and acid-producing bacteria (APB), reducing H₂S and organic acid production, the main drivers of MIC.

  • Applied through the same injection points as your current biocide program, making integration seamless.

  • Controlled, trace concentrations of copper ions preferentially interact with harmful bacteria, ensuring compatibility with steel pipes.

Benefits

  • Lowers corrosion rates and reduces MIC-related damage.

  • Removes scale that restricts water flow and system efficiency.

  • Reduces SRB-related chemical spend with no capital expenditure.

  • Optimizes performance of your existing biocide program.

Tailings Control

The slurry of water, fine rock, and residual chemicals left after mining and oil sands extraction can create major environmental and compliance challenges. BioEdge provides an advanced, multi-action solution for effective tailings remediation. Its copper-based formulation controls harmful microbes, accelerates the breakdown of complex organic compounds, and amplifies advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) for faster, more complete treatment. The result is cleaner water, safer containment, and a more sustainable approach to managing even the most demanding tailings sites.
