Wet Feeding
SoftAcid® gives very good results in wet feeding systems where yeasts and bacteria can grow easily.
In addition to the antibacterial effect offered, SoftAcid gives some benefits on sedimentation problems, since lignosulfonic acid is an excellent dispersant.
Benefits
- Strong pH effect compared to buffered acids
- Strong antibacterial effect
- Strong effect on yeasts and moulds
- Dispersant properties (to avoid sedimentation)
- Easy and safe to use
- More sustainable than pure acids
