In productions and industrial settings you may need a water softener where there is no tolerance (zero tolerance) for any calcium in the water. Vulcan can improve the performance of the water softener. In a lot of cases you can get rid of your water softener and replace it with Vulcan.
a) Vulcan replaces water softeners
Vulcan is the eco-friendly alternative to a traditional salt-based water softener. The salt that is distributed into water when using salt-softeners is polluting the environment and is not recommended for young children or older people. The old water softener system can easily be put out of use by simply bypassing it.
b) Vulcan as an addition to a water softener
If you want to keep the water softener running due to a special reason, you can save a lot of money when using Vulcan as an aid. This cuts down costs of salt, maintenance intervals will be extended and there is less malfunctioning in the backwash valves, etc.
Injection Molding.
An online search for this question will yield over 5 million results. The severity of mineral buildup in molding equipment wreak havoc on water flow, maintenance and overall production efficiencies. 1/16 inch of mineral scale build up in steel components equates to 3-5 inches of heat-transfer resistance. Plastics Technology quotes scale build up as: “The Silent Enemy of Cooling Performance”
Creating plastic related components demand a huge amount of heat transfers with subsequent water-cooling. This cooling process pulls mineral out of a water supply where they adhere to everything. Typically, scale-consuming chemicals are used for their aggressive ability to quickly strip away scale buildup. Chemicals are very efficient at descaling surfaces and also very good at unintentional surface etching; destroying equipment in the process. These descaling chemicals are flushed out of equipment with clean water and back into the natural world water-life-cycle.
A pharmaceutical company uses the mineral descaling technology to solve their scaling and rust issues.
The relative cost for a container of mineral descaling chemicals is relatively low but considering as little as 1/16 inch of scale buildup is equal to 3-5 inches of wasted heat-transfer, wasted energy consumption, wasted downtime, labor cost to dismantle equipment for cleaning, and the list goes on. Surely, it makes more sense to use technology that prevents scale deposits in the first place?

Irrigation Systems.
Water pressure changes and heat exacerbates the precipitation of minerals out of water where they bond to everything. Irrigation equipment in agricultural settings and greenhouse environments tend to rely on classic descaling solutions such as traditional water softening, periodic chemical treatments or some farmers may opt to incorporate ozone technology; for the purpose of increasing the dissolved oxygen levels in water.
The point of view for using ozone is that it helps to coagulate particles (and hopefully mineral scale along with it) out of a water supply. Ozone is phenomenal at disinfection water. All of these 'mineral scale reduction processes' have significant drawbacks ranging from an increase in water consumption (water softeners), manual maintenance (all of these solution), to environmental considerations (chemical treatments, water softeners), to a high investment cost with regular maintenance and consumable parts (all the systems, and in particular ozone).
A large luxury residential community uses the Vulcan descaler to increase the efficiency of their water irrigation equipment.

RO Membranes.
An online search for this question will yield over 2.5 million results. The severity of mineral buildup in on residential, commercial and industrial Reverse Osmosis filtration membranes impacts every operational part of RO systems; shorting membrane lifespans, increasing maintenance requirements, decreasing solute rejection rates, blocking permeability pores, increased energy costs from operating support systems and compromising water quality.
One of the largest aluminum wheel manufacturer in China saved $50,000 over a 9 month period after installing the Vulcan descaling device to support their industrial RO membranes.
Mineral scale buildup in RO system require a steadily increase in pressure to maintain the benchmark flow rate. If you are not using the Vulcan descaling device, restoring RO performance will typically require an acidic solution to clean the membrane pores. This cleaning approach will not work with all types of mineral scale, such as silica. (client reference to silica minerals being removed from their system when using the Vulcan descaler). If after using acid injection, water softening or scale inhibitor injection methods fail to remove the minerals and the RO performance cannot be restored, replacement becomes the only option.
Install over your pipe lines before your RO equipment and let science and nature take care of the entire descaling process. Even if your internal and external components are crystal clean at the end of the chemical descaling process, as soon a 1 mm of scale buildup interferes with energy transfer rates as much as 15% extra energy is demanded to maintain the same output capacity (based on research lab studies). The Vulcan descaler proprietary technology continuously descales your residential, commercial and industrial boiler equipment, water pipe infrastructure, other connected support equipment and your entire building.

Hot Water- Tank & Tankless.
An online search for this question will yield almost 400 million results. The severity of mineral buildup in hot water tanks (and tankless) and their components is a substantial and serious maintenance issue. Water leaks can occur at many places on a water heater (inlet and outlet valves, top of the water heater, drain valve at the bottom, etc). Scaling can even wear down the bottom of the tank so that the lining is no longer protects against corrosion.
Scaling will ultimately result in an internal pressure imbalance and cause your hot water heating system to shut off or lead to overflow and become an all-out flood that damages your home, flooring, and drywall. “Hot water heaters are among the top 5 causes of home water damage insurance claims”. Failing to provide proof your hot water tank has been adequately maintained will get your insurance claim denied.
The Vulcan descaler solution permanently reduces limescale build-up in tank and tankless water heaters. Your water heater will work much more efficiently in the absence of physical mineral scale buildup.
Mineral scaling and fouling increases the system's resistance to heat transfer, acting as an insulator. Carnegie Mellon University: “Scales reduce the rate of heat transfer and increase the hydraulic head loss, both negatively impact the electricity generation efficiency” US Department of Energy has also studied the impact of mineral scale and how it related to wasted energy consumption.
Researched impacts:
1 mm of scale buildup has been recorded at a 15% increase in energy demands
⅛ inch thickness on heating elements can result in 20%-25% efficiency loss
Almost 400 Million results on Google of chemical process, YouTube how to videos, descaling kits, plumber advice and services, chemical products, and the list goes on; only to then realize it could cost up to $300 or $400 per clean out. Even if you are doing it yourself because additional equipment needed.
Even if your hot water tank or tankless system is sparkling clean, as soon as you have a little as 1mm of new mineral scaling coating heating elements you immediately start the process of corrosion and consuming unnecessary energy to heat your water. As little as 1mm of scale buildup can consume an additional 15 % in energy to bring the water temperate to the set point temperature (based on research lab studies).
Install over home's main water pipe (the pipeline that enters your home/ business) and let science and nature take care of the entire descaling process. The Vulcan descaler proprietary technology continuously descales your hot wtaer tank/ tankless system, water pipe infrastructure, other connected support appliances and equipment and your entire property.

Even if you are not motivated by environmental laws and encouragements; the idea of having to manually descale your hot water system when you can simply install a device that automatically descales without additional labor, chemicals, resins, filters or consumable byproducts (other than 2.5 watts of energy) could be viewed as similar to installing lead water pipes instead of copper, PVC, PEX because it has been done for decades. Vulcan anti-scale is a greentech solution to manage mineral scaling concerns.
Mineral scale issues in hot water tanks is about more than maximizing equipment efficiency. Water borne pathogens use mineral scale buildup as a breeding ground and food source.
