Product Technical Bulletin | |
ALKEN NU-BIND 2-10X FF is a fully formulated MANUFACTURING CONCENTRATE containing a proprietary natural substance, which binds mercaptans and amines (also has some effect on hydrogen sulfide) with a synergistic blend of four non-pathogenic, Biosafety Class 1, endospore-forming Bacillus strains, which manufacture protease, lipase and amylase enzymes with optimum activity and degrade propionic, acetic, butyric, isobutyric and lactic fatty acids, to provide a safe "natural solution" for a variety of noxious organic odors. Nutrients and catalysts act as biostimulants while sophisticated non-resoiling surfactants, designed specifically to enhance penetration of garbage cans, dumpsters, loading docks, fitness facilities, garages and basements. Also suitable for use in barns for swine and cattle, when liquid formula is preferred.. |

Use the entire contents of 55 gallon drum. Dilute one part concentrate with nine parts of water, taking into account the volume of fragrance and/or color to be added in final formulation. Blend in remainder of formula (fragrance and/or color). Blend slowly for a minimum of 30 minutes to assure proper spore dispersion in solution. Do NOT allow product to stand without agitation during repackaging to drums, pails or bottles. Do not use Alken 896 as an oxygenating nutrient catalyst with this formula, as it will cause stratification and ruin the odor binding capability of the formula. Product is normally sold fully formulated, but scent can be omitted from manufacturing concentrate, if requested when order is placed. |
The microbial component of Alken Nu-Bind 2 is activated by DILUTION with water. Thoroughly shake bottle or pail, before diluting, to stir the brown residue up from the bottom, ensuring that all of the spores are in solution. The shelf-life of diluted product is one (1) month. Remove excess soil and waste before applying. Hot water, bleach, disinfectants, and strongly alkaline detergents will deactivate Alken Nu-Bind, and should neither be mixed with the product, nor used as a pre-cleaner. Disinfectant should not be applied less than 2 hours after treatment with Alken Nu-Bind. For large area applications (garbage cans, dumpsters and surrounding surfaces): Dilute 1:10 to 1:100, based upon concentration of odor and requirement for degree of odor control. Spray thoroughly over source of odor. If odor is caused by odorant added to propane gas, spray over the area from which odor is emitted. If petroleum spill is involved, use Alken Enz-Odor 12 instead. |
ALKEN NU-BIND 2-10x FF is packaged in 5 gallon plastic pails and 55 gallon plastic drums, as a "special order" item. Store in a cool place. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and open wounds. Wash hands with soap and water after handling. IHT code: 3307.90.000, "Prepared room deodorizer, not perfumed, NESOI" Update:06/22/2005 |
