Pipeline Applications with HydroFLOW®
HydroFLOW® enhances the efficiency and longevity of pipelines by treating limescale, biofouling, and corrosion and reducing blockages. It ensures optimal flow, minimises maintenance costs, and supports sustainable operations across various industries.
Optimising Pipelines with HydroFLOW®
Pipelines are essential for transporting water, chemicals, and process fluids across industrial, commercial, and municipal applications. When the water or fluid is particularly high in mineral content, the pipeline is exposed to heating (including solar heating) or chemical additives are injected, they can become prone to limescale or other mineral scaling. They can all experience problems with biofouling and corrosion. All of these problems restrict flow, reduce efficiency, and increase maintenance costs.
HydroFLOW® provides a non-invasive, chemical-free solution to treat scale, biofilm, and corrosion in pipelines. By keeping pipelines clean and free from deposits, HydroFLOW® helps maintain consistent flow rates, reduces operational downtime, and extends infrastructure lifespan.

HydroFLOW® Solutions for Pipelines: Flow Assurance, Cleanliness, and Durability
Treats Limescale & Scaling Deposits
Limescale buildup inside pipelines reduces internal diameter, increasing friction and restricting flow. HydroFLOW® treats mineral deposits by keeping minerals such as calcium and magnesium in suspension, ensuring unrestricted flow and optimal system performance.
Treats scaling inside pipelines and distribution networks
Reduces pressure loss and maintains consistent flow rates
Minimises the need for chemical scale inhibitors
Extends pipeline lifespan by treating excessive scale accumulation
Reduces Biofilm & Bacterial Growth
Biofilm accumulation inside pipelines can reduce flow efficiency, increase contamination risks, and accelerate corrosion. HydroFLOW® inhibits biofilm formation by minimising bacterial adhesion to pipe surfaces, ensuring cleaner and safer water transport.
Reduces biofilm buildup in industrial, commercial, agricultural, and municipal pipelines
Minimises bacterial growth and contamination risks
Improves overall water quality and hygiene
Lowers reliance on chemical disinfection treatments
Mitigates Corrosion & Pipeline Degradation
Corrosion weakens pipeline integrity, leading to leaks, failures, and expensive repairs. HydroFLOW® mitigates corrosion by reducing biofilm and controlling scale formation, minimising corrosive conditions within the pipeline network.
Reduces internal corrosion in metal pipelines
Extends the operational lifespan of water distribution systems
Minimises the need for corrosion inhibitors and protective coatings
Improves pipeline durability and long-term reliability
Reduces Blockages & Maintains Optimal Flow
Sediment, biofilm, and scale deposits contribute to blockages, leading to system inefficiencies and costly maintenance. HydroFLOW® keeps pipeline interiors clean and free from obstructions, ensuring reliable operation.
Reduces sediment and organic buildup in pipelines
Maintains high flow rates and reduce pressure loss
Minimises the need for frequent flushing and cleaning
Supports efficient water and fluid transport
Reduces Maintenance Costs & Downtime
Pipeline maintenance can be time-consuming and costly, particularly in large-scale industrial, municipal, and agricultural systems. HydroFLOW® reduces the need for chemical treatments, mechanical cleaning, and emergency repairs, helping businesses and utilities operate more efficiently.
Decreases pipeline maintenance frequency and costs
Reduces costly system shutdowns for cleaning and repairs
Ensures continuous, trouble-free pipeline operation
Lowers overall lifecycle costs of pipeline infrastructure
