INC 2214 Scale Inhibitor Intermediate is a high-calcium tolerant phosphonate scale inhibitor intermediate neutralized to a pH of 2.5. Formulations based on INC 2214 are extremely tolerant to high Calcium brines. Generally, phosphonate scale inhibitors will tend to form Calcium Phosphate when injected into produced waters containing more than about 6,000 mg./L. of Calcium. However, INC 2214 has been observed to tolerate 350,000 mg./L. of Calcium without precipitating out of solution. Primarily intended for Calcium Carbonate inhibition, INC 2214 also shows activity inhibiting Calcium Sulfate scale, and good performance inhibiting Barium Sulfate.
