Primavera an indigenous African firm that specializes in the manufacturing and marketing of chlorine derivatives within Africa.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a colorless to yellowish-green, clear corrosive liquid with a pungent odor. HCl is primarily used in the petrochemical and petroleum industries for its utility in chemical processing and oilfield productivity, metal pickling, galvanizing and as a pH correction agent.
Caustic soda is a basic product that is widely used in a diverse range of industrial sectors, either as a raw material or as an auxiliary chemical. It is generally sold in two forms: as lye, with various concentrations (usually in the 30-32% & 49-50% range), and as solid caustic soda in the form of flakes or granules.
A white, crystalline substance, calcium chloride serves an array of purposes from food preservation to highway construction. Calcium chloride is also used as a raw material in industrial applications and manufacturing processes. Some applications include: solidifying agent in paint production, coagulant in the manufacture of rubber, chloridizing agent and additive in metallurgy, additive in the paper industry including deinking of recycled paper, dye production and printing, and as a refrigeration aid.
Hydrogen is used for the hydrogenation of edible oils and non-edible oils. It is also used in the manufacturing process of soaps and petro-products, hard lubricants and sintering in the manufacturing process of tungsten carbide tool bits. It is also essential for powder metallurgy, underwater gas cutting and plasma cutting, the manufacturing of hydrogen peroxide, rocket propulsion, and more.
Sodium hypochlorite is also known as soda bleach. Its chemical formula of NaOCl is used extensively for domestic bleach manufacturing and industrial applications such as wastewater treatment and industrial cooling water. “Hypo” is in high demand as a cost-effective way to prevent the spread of infections via water-borne diseases. It is a bleaching agent for rayon, pulp and paper, cotton, linen and jute. It is also a disinfectant and deodorant in dairies, water treatment (chlorination), household bleach, pool chlorination, and more.
Aluminum chlorohydrate is one of the most common active ingredients in commercial antiperspirants.[2] The variation most commonly used in deodorants and antiperspirants is Al2Cl(OH)5. Aluminum chlorohydrate is also used as a coagulant in water and wastewater treatment processes to remove dissolved organic matter and colloidal particles present in suspension.
Chlor Alkali products are used in various industries such as water, petrochemical, paper, plastic, textiles, pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, medical equipment, paints, soap & detergent, metal processing, etc.
Water Treatment Plants are used to purify water for drinking purposes from untreated sources of water such as rivers, seas, lakes, and wells.
This refers to the process used to convert wastewater into an effluent (outflowing of water to a receiving body of water) that can be returned to the water cycle with minimal impact on the environment or be directly reused
Approximately 85% of all pharmaceuticals contain or are manufactured with chlorine. These drugs include vitamins and medicines that treat heart disease, cancer, ulcers, allergies, and more.
Caustic Soda plays an important role for the food industry in a number of ways, as it is especially useful for washing or chemically peeling fruits and vegetables.
Sodium Hypochlorite is used to eliminate bacteria during the treatment of water. Hydrochloric Acid and Caustic Soda are used for various purposes, such as during the chemical cleaning of systems and to regenerate the mixed bed resin used in condensate polishing systems.
Caustic Soda is used as an intermediate and a reactant in the processes of petrochemical products. It is also used to regenerate iron exchange for the production of DM water.
