Handling

  • Store unopened under dry conditions at temperatures between 50°F and 85°F.
  • The shelf life of the unopened product is >1 year
  • The dry opened product should be used within 1 month.
  • Diluted products should be used immediately to avoid microbial growth and activity which may cause gas buildups in containers and visible growth which may foul equipment.
  • Following injection of material, wells should be flushed with clean water to prevent microbial growth. Wells should be flushed with at least 300% of the total well volume to assure substrate is pushed into the aquifer formation and to prevent biofouling in the well.
  • Equipment decontamination should follow site-specific requirements. In most situations, any product residual should be flushed into the aquifer and then chased with clean water.
