  • What is the problem?

    Re-circulating and once through process and cooling water systems will have build-up of organic or unwanted deposits that frequently lower the performance of industrial operations: 
     

    • Odor formation 
    • Sludge formation 
    • Clogging of pipes and/or reduced water flow
    • Reduced operating efficiency 
    • Higher maintenance costs and unscheduled outages 
    • Organic deposits can shield microbes, requiring increased biocide use 

  • What is our solution? 

    HeiQ VivoTech Water Treatment! We use the power of probiotics for the sustainable cleaning of industrial process and cooling systems.

    The action of our products is based on a combination of surfactants, enzymes, and probiotics. 

    Probiotics and enzymes break down organic dirt, separating the dirt from the substrate, bringing it into a dissolved or colloidal state and making it easier to physically remove.

    Our products support optimum system performance, in terms of surface cleaning, preventing deposit and odor build-up. 

What’s the problem?

  • Sweat odor needs five precursors to emerge. Warmth and moisture from the body and the surrounding and a hosting surface such as the fibers on our clothes provide a perfect home for the bacteria, which feed on the fat and protein from our sweat and emit odors during their metabolic activities. Is that the bacteria or the odor that is the problem? Let’s tackle the real problem: odors.​

    Probilife Pty Ltd, based in South Africa, partners with Pruex Africa to deliver HeiQ probiotic solutions for hygiene and water treatment. Corran Farming, an innovative crocodile farm near the south shore of Lake Malawi, replaced harsh chemical cleaning agents with a natural microbial water treatment approach. This change removed chemicals from the farm’s processes and created a way to reuse water responsibly.

     

    As part of a UN development initiative, nutrient-rich water from the crocodile pens now irrigates 19 hectares of land and supplies three aquaculture ponds for smallholder farmers. Before this system, local farmers relied on unpredictable rainfall and fertilizers. Today, they grow crops more reliably, improve household income, and strengthen food security for their families.

     

    Ralph Henderson, Managing Director of Corran Farming, shared: “After the water we use has been through the crocodiles, it is returned to the community, rich in nutrients and completely free of harsh chemicals. In the past, “green water” was a problem and had to be disposed of, but now it is environmentally friendly and can be used for horticulture and aquaculture by the community outside the crocodile ponds.”
This collaboration shows how natural solutions can reduce environmental impact and create shared value for agriculture and local communities.
