Description
Glutaraldehyde ($C_5H_8O_2$) is a broad-spectrum non-oxidizing biocide widely used in oil and gas water injection, pipeline hydrotesting, cooling water treatment, and medical instrument sterilization. Because glutaraldehyde deactivates bacteria and prevents microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), maintaining precise active concentrations is vital for asset integrity.
Biocide Residual & Microbial Control
Direct optical testing verifies chemical delivery strength and validates active dosing without hazardous liquid reagents or lengthy microbiological assay delays.
Fast On-Site Spectroscopy vs. Laboratory Delays
The OndaVia Glutaraldehyde Analysis Kit (Analyte Code: B033) provides rapid on-site optical testing in under 5 minutes.
