A scale inhibitor made from plants, which can be used in industrial water treatment instead of substances made from petroleum.
The teams at ODYSSEE have made ODYLIFE, the first bio-based anti-scaling actives, which saves natural resources and helps the environment. There are many ways to use it, such as in cooling towers, steam boilers, closed loops, reverse osmosis, and saltwater desalinization. It can also be used in geothermal systems, detergents, and household water supplies. With ODYLIFE, ODYSSEE can make a natural ingredient that has strong properties and is extracted in an environmentally friendly way. ODYLIFE can be put into place at a reasonable price and doesn’t require any investments or technical changes because the transition was made to be that easy. More than that, switching to ODYLIFE means taking concrete steps to promote a corporate social responsibility policy that is in line with a number of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. In addition to being good for the environment, this solution makes sure that local industries and the ecology of the area work well together by replacing chemical factories with plants and farmers.
Positive facts about ODYLIFE
300% more biodegradable: ODYLIFE analyses yield outstanding results compared to polyacrylates, one of the primary alternatives in use today.
0% harmful substances: aquatic organisms can tolerate higher doses (at least 10 times more), with no adverse effects. As a result, ODYLIFE is not considered to be a dangerous substance under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
€0 investment required to implement ODYLIFE. ODYLIFE has been designed to be a “plug and play” solution, to replace current solutions.
98% fewer CO2 emissions: as shown in the LCA, the emission of CO2 equivalent associated with climate change is very low. ODYLIFE represents a 98% reduction, compared to traditional phosphate-based treatments.
50% fewer non-renewable resources are needed to produce ODYLIFE than phosphate. Consumption today is primarily linked to fuel for agricultural machinery, transportation and manufacturing processes. As ODYLIFE production grows, it is clear that economies o
75% less water consumption: our extraction process is nearly solvent-free, mainly using the water contained in the raw materials, which explains the resulting water consumption levels that are three times lower than for polyacrylates.
The break-even point is instantaneous. When sold at the market price, ODYLIFE offers positive externalities that make ODYLIFE even economical.
€0 investment required, as ODYLIFE’s formulas demand no special equipment.
