A number of the new, more effective organic molecules and polymers synthesized during recent years have resulted in the progressive development of several advanced all-organic type water treatment formulations. Laboratory, as well as pilot plant and field trial test data show these totally organic programs to provide higher levels of specialized corrosion and scale inhibition as well as good resistance to oxidizing biocides. Environmental safety is retained to the extent that none of the components of these formulations appear on the current EPA toxic substances list, requiring federal regulation.
