Preserving the integrity and safety of personal care products is a critical aspect of formulation, and alternative preservatives like those offered by CHA Systems are gaining prominence. Their 100% natural preservative solutions provide a broad-spectrum effect, ensuring efficacy across a range of pH levels from 4 to 8. This versatility is particularly advantageous in diverse formulations, catering to the varying acidity levels present in skincare, haircare, and cosmetic products.
One key highlight of CHA Systems’ offerings is the broad-spectrum preservation boosting effect in the pH range of 4 to 8. This capability is instrumental in maintaining product stability and preventing microbial growth, addressing the challenges posed by varying pH levels in different personal care formulations. By offering a comprehensive solution, CHA Systems supports formulators in creating robust and effective products without compromising on natural and clean label requirements.
Furthermore, the emergence of multifunctional preservative boosters is transforming the landscape of preservatives in personal care. Multifunctional preservative booster’s all-natural, multi-functional system not only serves as an effective preservative but also allows for the development of preservative-free and self-preserving cosmetics. This innovation aligns with the growing consumer demand for products that are not only safe and effective but also free from traditional preservatives. As the personal care industry continues to evolve, the emphasis on natural and multifunctional preservative solutions is becoming increasingly significant.
Formulators are exploring alternatives that not only meet regulatory standards but also align with the preferences of consumers seeking cleaner and greener options. These offerings represent a noteworthy advancement in this space, providing formulators with the tools to create products that are both safe and in harmony with the growing demand for natural and multifunctional solutions in personal care.
Product and customer insights
CHALLENGE A power plant relying on ultrafiltration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) faced a critical operational challenge. A wastewater treatment upset severely fouled the UF system, drastically reducing water production. Despite multiple cleaning attempts with sodium hypochlorite and citric acid, transmembrane pressure (TMP) remained high, and flux showed no improvement. The plant’s inability to meet […]
CHALLENGE A gold processing plant in New Zealand sought to improve gold recovery efficiency while addressing high Total Organic Carbon (TOC) levels. Elevated TOC increased the Preg-Robbing Factor (PRF), reducing the plant’s ability to efficiently recover gold during the Carbon-In-Leach (CIL) process. The traditional use of kerosene as a carbon blanking agent offered limited efficacy, […]
CHALLENGE A municipal water reuse plant processing 8 million gallons per day (MGD) experienced severe fouling and scaling issues, including calcium phosphate and silica deposits. With steep feed pressure increases and differential pressures in both stages, the plant required frequent cleanings every 4 to 6 weeks, amounting to 32 cleanings annually. Each cleaning cycle resulted […]
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant on Florida’s west coast, with a 20 MGD capacity, faced high operational costs due to its reliance on 93% sulfuric acid for pH adjustment. The plant used a combination of a brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) membranes and fiberglass-wrapped membranes across 10 trains, each operating at 75% recovery. […]
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant, with a capacity of 2 million gallons per day (MGD), faced frequent system cleanings, every 2-4 months, due to rising feed pressure. The plant, which sources water from brackish wells and uses Toray TMG-20D-400 membranes in a (16×7) -> (8×7) train configuration, was operating at 78% recovery. Despite […]
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
