Manufacturers, Exporters and Suppliers of Industrial Defoamers – Antifoaming Agents for Wastewater, Cooling Towers & Process Applications in Ahmedabad

Innova Corporate's Defoamers (antifoaming agents) are essential for Ahmedabad's industrial processes where foam causes operational problems – including cooling towers, textile dyeing, tanneries, effluent treatment plants (ETPs), chemical reactors, paints, and food processing. Foam in Ahmedabad's cooling towers reduces heat transfer (air entrainment), causes water loss via drift, and can trigger biocide carryover (especially quats). For cooling towers in textile mills and chemical plants, foam is often caused by biocide surfactants (quats), dispersants, or process contamination (oils, detergents). Our defoamer range includes: silicone-based (polydimethylsiloxane – PDMS emulsion, 10-30% active) – excellent for most water-based systems, effective at very low levels (1-5 ppm), high temperature stability (up to 100°C), but may cause fish eyes if used in paints or coatings; non-silicone oil-based (mineral oil + hydrophobic silica, 20-40% active) – for food-grade applications and where silicone is prohibited; water-based polyglycol defoamers (polypropylene glycol – PPG, or block copolymers of EO/PO) – for high-temperature systems (>80°C) and for use in ETP aeration tanks where silicone would coat bacteria; powder defoamers (calcium stearate, fatty amides) – for dry mixes (e.g., detergents, cement). For Ahmedabad's textile dyeing units (jet dyeing machines, high-shear conditions), foam at 130°C requires silicone emulsion defoamers that are stable at high temperature and shear. For chemical and pharmaceutical reactors (stirred tanks), we supply concentrated silicone defoamers (50-100% active) that are added undiluted. For ETP aeration tanks in Ahmedabad's CETPs and individual ETPs, biological foam (due to filamentous bacteria or high FOG) is controlled using water-based polyglycol defoamers that don't harm microorganisms (silicone can coat and kill bacteria). For food industry (Ahmedabad's dairy, sweets, pickles, soft drinks), our polypropylene glycol (PPG) or vegetable oil-based defoamers are NSF/ADI or FDA approved (21 CFR 173.340). For paint and coating manufacturing (Ahmedabad has several small paint units), we supply non-silicone defoamers to avoid surface defects. Typical dosage: 5-50 ppm continuous or 100-200 ppm shock. Our defoamers are supplied as liquids of varying viscosity (200-5000 cP), easy to pump. For cooling tower applications, we recommend silicone defoamers because of their high efficiency (1-5 ppm) and compatibility with most treatment chemicals. We also provide defoamer test kits (shake test, bubble collapse time, foam height measurement). Available in 25L, 200L drums, 1000L IBC. For Ahmedabad's hotels with large cooling towers, we offer automatic defoamer feed systems (based on a foam sensor or timer). Technical support includes foam tendency testing (Ross-Miles method) to select the optimal defoamer for your process.
