Sanitation, Pool Water and Flocculation Products
Controlling scale and corrosion alone is not sufficient for effective water management. Bacteria, algae, fungi, suspended solids, organic contaminants and dissolved minerals can directly affect water quality, system hygiene and operating performance.
ACCA sanitation, pool-water and flocculation products are developed to help maintain sanitary-water circuits, preserve the chemical balance of swimming-pool water and separate suspended particles from industrial process water.
The range includes scale and corrosion inhibitors, chlorine-based sanitation products, hydrogen-peroxide and silver-salt solutions, swimming-pool chlorination chemicals, pH regulators, algaecides, pool flocculants and industrial coagulation products.
Protection of Sanitary-Water Systems
In sanitary-water systems, scale, corrosion and microbiological growth can affect pipework, storage tanks, heat exchangers, showers and points of use. Hard-water conditions promote mineral deposits, while unsuitable temperature and stagnation conditions may increase microbiological risks.
The ACCA WT CS range provides solutions for controlling scale, corrosion and microbiological contamination in suitable sanitary-water circuits.
Sanitary-Water Treatment Products
ALIPHOS CS 10150** is an NSF G2-certified scale and corrosion inhibitor based on high-purity polyphosphates. It helps control mineral precipitation and corrosion in suitable sanitary- and drinking-water systems.
WT CS 10150/D DECROST** is a silicate- and phosphate-based scale and corrosion-control product. Its high-purity active ingredients make it suitable for appropriate sanitary-water applications.
WT CS 10151/D CL** is a chlorine-based product developed to control algae and bacteria in sanitary-water systems. It is mainly intended for controlled hyperchlorination treatments. According to the ACCA catalogue, the product is active against *Legionella pneumophila*.
WT CS 10153 IG CL5** is a chlorine-based solution developed for continuous chlorination in suitable drinking- and sanitary-water applications. It helps control major microorganisms and maintain hygienic system conditions.
WT CS 10152/D IG** is a sanitation product based on hydrogen peroxide combined with silver salts. According to the ACCA catalogue, it is effective against *Legionella pneumophila*, *Pseudomonas aeruginosa* and *Staphylococcus aureus*.
Sanitation programmes must consider the intended use of the water, system volume, temperature, microbiological analysis and applicable regulations. Country- and application-specific authorisations must be confirmed before use in drinking water or public systems.
Swimming-Pool Water Treatment Products
Maintaining clear, balanced and hygienic swimming-pool water requires coordinated control of disinfectant levels, pH, alkalinity, hardness, circulation and filtration.
Insufficient disinfection may promote algae and microorganism growth. Excessive or unbalanced chemical treatment may cause corrosion, cloudiness, deposits, unpleasant odours and reduced user comfort.
ACCA pool products provide solutions for chlorination, algae control, pH adjustment, flocculation, winter maintenance and pool-surface cleaning.
Chlorination Products
POOL-CLOR GRANULI CHI** is a high-active-content granular chlorine product that can be applied manually or through suitable automated dissolving systems.
PAS CLOR 200 GR CHI** consists of slow-dissolving 200-gram chlorine tablets for suitable applications requiring gradual and controlled chlorine release.
POOL-CLOR LIQUIDO** is a sodium-hypochlorite-based liquid chlorinating product. It can be used with automatic dosing systems for continuous treatment or controlled breakpoint chlorination.
POOL-CLOR BC** is a granular calcium-hypochlorite product suitable for applications requiring chlorination without increasing the cyanuric-acid level in the pool.
PAS CLOR TRIAL** is a multifunctional tablet combining chlorination, flocculation and microbiological-control functions.
Algae and Microbiological Control
POOL 14 A is a non-foaming product that helps control algae and bacteria in swimming pools. According to the ACCA catalogue, it is active against *Legionella pneumophila* over a broad pH range.
Product selection and dosage should consider pool usage, water temperature, free-chlorine level, pH and existing microbiological conditions.
pH Adjustment
Pool-water pH is critical to both disinfectant performance and user comfort.
PH-PIÙ LIQUIDO** is a concentrated product used to increase pool-water pH.
PH-MENO LIQUIDO** is designed to reduce the pH value. Both products can be applied through controlled automatic measuring and dosing systems.
Clarification and Flocculation
Very small particles may pass through the pool filter and create cloudy water.
FLOOK 187** combines fine suspended particles into larger flocs that can be removed more easily through filtration or settlement. Correct application helps restore water clarity.
RED CLOR POOL** is used to reduce excessive free-chlorine levels in a controlled manner.
Winter Treatment and Surface Cleaning
POOL SVERN** is designed to preserve pool water during seasonal shutdowns. It helps limit the formation of scale, algae and sludge during the winter period.
ANTICAL DET** is intended to remove scale, rust, grease, dust and environmental contamination from pool surrounds, walls and compatible hard surfaces.
Industrial Flocculation Products
Flocculation is the process of chemically combining fine suspended particles into larger structures that can be separated more easily from water. It is used for water clarification and solid-liquid separation in industrial process water, water-curtain spray booths, and marble and glass processing.
The ACCA SOFT COAT range is developed to coagulate, float or settle paint overspray in water-curtain spray booths. These products help prevent paint particles from adhering to surfaces, keep process water clearer and reduce the risk of blockages in pumps, pipes and nozzles.
Spray-Booth Products
- SOFT COAT G:** Floating flocculant that brings coagulated paint particles to the surface
- SOFT COAT LIQUIDO:** Cationic liquid flocculant that produces soft, easily removable sludge
- SOFT COAT P-L:** Paint-overspray deactivator that prevents adhesion to booth surfaces
- SOFT COAT POLVERE:** Powder coagulant designed to settle deactivated paint particles
- SOFT COAT SCHIUMOGENO:** Foaming flocculant that collects paint overspray at the surface
- SOFT COAT W:** Cationic settling flocculant and deactivation product
Marble and Glass Processing Products
MEG G** is a cationic flocculant designed to settle suspended solids generated during marble and glass processing.
MEG M** is an anionic flocculant developed particularly for clarifying water used in marble processing.
These products can accelerate settlement, facilitate water reuse, extend process-tank operating life and help reduce sludge-disposal costs.

Product Selection and Safe Application
Product selection must consider the intended use of the water, chemical analysis, pH, temperature, hardness, system volume, filtration capacity, microbiological loading and required process result.
Chlorine-based products, acids and other chemicals must never be mixed directly. Each product should be applied through separate, compatible dosing equipment. Technical data sheets and safety data sheets must be reviewed before use.
Sanitation and biocidal products are subject to regulations that vary by country, facility and application. Product authorisation, target microorganisms, application concentration and contact time should be evaluated together with professional water analysis and a site-specific risk assessment.
