BIOCIDE Bromocide 7615
Excellent biofilm remover and strong algae depressant fully compatible with alkalizing and flocculating agents normally used in cooling / boiler water. Algae growth is the main cause of colour in water. Routine and weekly additions of RXSOL-40-4009-020 establish a buffer action to control very rap
BIOCIDE Bromocide 7615 is a stabilized liquid oxidizing microbiocide specifically designed for effective microbial control in industrial water treatment systems.
Unlike conventional chlorine-based disinfectants, which rapidly lose efficacy at alkaline pH, this bromine-based formulation maintains strong biocidal activity even at pH values up to 9, making it ideal for use in cooling systems, seawater applications, and processes where alkaline conditions are prevalent.
When dosed into water, the product hydrolyzes to form a fast-acting, broad-spectrum biocide. BIOCIDE BROMOCIDE exhibits superior penetration into microbial slime layers and biofilms compared to chlorine, ensuring rapid disinfection and long-lasting control of bacteria, algae, fungi, and biofilm-forming organisms.
The stabilized alkaline formulation prevents premature decomposition, ensuring safe storage and consistent performance during application. The inclusion of buffering agents minimizes product degradation and enhances shelf-life.
Because bromine chemistry produces fewer halogenated by-products (THMs, HAAs) compared to chlorine, this product also provides an environmentally preferable option for industries seeking compliance with stringent discharge regulations.
Effetively control BIOFILM, BACETRIA, ALGAE etc from
- Cooling towers & HVAC circuits – microbial & Legionella control
- Seawater injection systems (oilfields) – prevention of biofouling and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC)
- Desalination plants & RO pretreatment – biofilm reduction on membranes and heat exchangers
- Pulp & paper mills – slime and odor control in white water systems
- Power generation & petrochemical plants – effective control of cooling water microbial growth
Dosage Guideline
- Continuous feed: Maintain 0.2 – 0.6 ppm free residual bromine.
- Shock dosing: 0.8 – 1.5 ppm as Br₂ for heavy contamination.
- Dose directly to system water (side stream or basin).
- High efficacy in alkaline water
- Rapid kill kinetics against bacteria, algae, fungi, and slime-forming organisms
- Biofilm penetration for long-term system cleanliness
- Lower halogenated by-products compared to chlorine disinfection
- Compatible with seawater systems where high chloride levels suppress chlorine activity
- Stabilized alkaline formulation for safe handling and extended shelf-life

Mode of Action of Biocide Bromocide 7615
- In aqueous systems, the product hydrolyzes to hypobromous acid (HOBr), a rapid-acting oxidizing biocide.
- HOBr penetrates microbial cell walls, inactivates enzymes, and destroys biofilms.
- Remains effective in alkaline waters where chlorine loses activity.
