Treatment & Recycling

On-The-Fly Disinfection

The DI-AUXCIDE™ unit incorporates a three-precursor on-site generation of high quality chlorine dioxide (ClO2) to effectively treat and disinfect fracturing water on the fly. Di-Auxcide is capable of treating fresh and produced water sources at rates up to 150bpm. Built in redundancy on our units significantly reduce the risk of unplanned downtime. Oxidation of H2S, FeS (and other sulfides), SRB (sulfate reducing bacteria), APB (acid producing bacteria), coupled with low residual levels of chlorine dioxide produces a treated frac water that does not adversely affect slick water frac fluid systems. Our mobile units are capable of generating up to 2,000 lbs per day of ClO2.

Our AUXCIDE™ blending/ treating trailer unit is designed to provide a consistent source water blend and chemical treatment. AUXIDE™ is fully automated to operate at a set chemical dosing or ,to maintain ORP, pH, residual Cl, and conductivity, without operator intervention. This prevents over treatment with oxidizers which can potentially affect frac polymer chemistry. To guarantee adequate mixtures prior to leaving our blend unit we use an inline static mixer. AUXIDE™ is capable of pumping all common types of oxidizers to meet the needs of our clients. The unit is also capable of injecting 3 chemicals simultaneously. Commonly, biocides, scale inhibitors, and more.

All of our automated treatment systems provide a 24/7 view of fluid flow volume, treatment dosage, pH and ORP levels to ensure total treatment via our VTScadaTM system. To ensure adequate kill and sensor accuracy, pH, ORP, chlorides and chlorine dioxide/ free chlorine+residual are tested by our skilled operators on site. Bacteria levels can be monitored on site with instant results with ATP technology. All data will be accessible to the customer real time on the online customer portal.
