Designed to reliably clean more water with fewer chemicals, TideForce™ reduces chemical usage while boosting performance for industrial wastewater, municipal wastewater, and intake water
Explore how TideForce can optimize your water treatment programs, cut costs, and reduce environmental impact
With great power comes great benefits, including:
Less Sludge
TideForce has been found to reduce sludge volume by 5x to 8x in industries like food and beverage. One facility cut its sludge hauling from 4 trucks per month to one per month, reducing both disposal costs and labor.
Reduced Chemical Use
By replacing products with TideForce, facilities can cut their chemical feed rates dramatically. One facility reduced chemical use by over 90%, saving $172,000 annually in chemical costs.
Better Biological Systems
TideForce promotes better health in biological systems like digesters. It supports both aerobic and anaerobic processes without harming beneficial organisms, contributing to higher system efficiency.
Safer to Handle
TideForce minimizes the need for additional pH adjustments. Operations staff can spend less time handling totes and chemicals like caustic, lowering operational risks and requiring fewer resources.
How does it work?
Long and Strong Molecules
TideForce is made up of long-chain molecules that are loaded with positive charges, making it highly effective at neutralizing contaminants.
These molecules swiftly bind to negatively charged contaminants like organic matter, oils, heavy metals, nutrients, and other pollutants.
Thanks to its structure, TideForce delivers effective results at lower feed rates than conventional coagulants, making it the ideal choice for cost-effective water treatment.
Stable System pH
TideForce does NOT substantially alter the pH of wastewater.
Its low-dose application maintains a steady pH, which minimizes the need for additional chemicals like caustic to rebalance water chemistry—saving time, resources, and money.
High Solids Loading
TideForce has abundant active sites to bind to a wide range of pollutants, forming a more effective floc.
This advanced coagulation process not only removes contaminants quickly and thoroughly, but also reduces sludge volume by 5x to 8x, lowering disposal costs.
This also improves the overall efficiency of water treatment systems in both municipal and industrial applications.
Floc Assist
In addition to its powerful coagulation properties, TideForce enhances the performance of downstream flocculants.
By forming stable flocs, it boosts the efficiency of flocculation processes, ensuring better solids separation and improved clarity of treated water.
Safer Chemistry for Water Treatment Professionals
At Tidal Clear, we believe that effective water treatment shouldn’t come at the cost of human health or environmental safety. That’s why the core ingredients in TideForce™, including chitosan and chitosan acetate, are listed on the EPA’s Safer Chemical Ingredients List (SCIL).
Real-World Success: Case Studies from Industrial Wastewater Facilities
⬇ 37% in Chemistry Cost Reduction
At a food processing plant, our TideForce™ replaced traditional chemistries, resulting in:
- Lower Chemical Use: Fewer products needed on site (from three products down to two).
- Equal or Better Capture Rate: Achieving cleaner water with faster reaction times.
- Reduced Hazardous By-products: Elimination of metal salts reduced the amount of skimmed material sent to solids handling.
Meat Packaging Facility - USA
After introducing TideForce™ (TF-316), we saw exceptional results:
- 90% reduction in annual chemical costs: Saving the client $172,000 annually.
- No more aluminum or caustic: Eliminated the need for traditional settling aids in secondary treatment.
- Regulatory Compliance: Total Suspended Solids (TSS) reduced to 2.5% of the site’s regulatory limit.
- Less Sludge: Sludge production reduced up to 91%, reducing labor and transportation costs.
