Usage

1. Food Industry (Primary Use)

Meat Processing:

• Color Fixative: Maintains bright pink/red color in cured meats (ham, sausages, bacon) by accelerating nitrite conversion

• Antioxidant: Extends shelf life by preventing lipid oxidation in processed meats

• Nitrite Reducer: Lowers residual nitrite levels, reducing carcinogenic nitrosamine formation

Beverages:

• Oxygen Scavenger: Prevents oxidation in soft drinks, beers, and fruit juices

• Color Stabilizer: Maintains natural color in canned/bottled beverages

Other Food Applications:

• Bakery: Dough conditioner that improves texture and volume

• Canned Foods: Prevents discoloration in fruits/vegetables

• Seafood: Antioxidant for frozen fish and shellfish

2. Pharmaceutical Applications

• Antioxidant Stabilizer: Preserves active ingredients in medicines

• Excipient: Used in tablet formulations

• Vitamin C Synergist: Enhances antioxidant effects in supplements

3. Industrial Uses

Petroleum Industry:

• Drilling fluid antioxidant

• Crude oil demulsifier aid

• Fuel stabilizer (aviation/diesel)

Water Treatment:

• Heavy metal reducer (Cr6+ → Cr³+)

• Oxygen scavenger for boiler water

Other Industrial:

• Photography developing agent

• Cosmetics preservative

• Rubber antioxidant

4. Agricultural Applications

• Animal feed preservative

• Post-harvest treatment for fresh produce

1. Drilling Fluid Additive

• Functions:

  • Antioxidant: Delays oxidative degradation of oil-based or synthetic drilling fluids, enhancing stability.

  • Metal Ion Chelator: Binds with Fe²+/Fe³+ to prevent catalytic oxidation (similar to its role in food preservation).

  • Corrosion Inhibitor Aid: Reduces oxygen-induced corrosion in drilling equipment.

• Advantage:
  More environmentally friendly than traditional sulfite-based additives, with no sulfide byproducts.

2. Demulsifier Booster for Crude Oil

• Role:

  • Reduction-Assisted Demulsification: Disrupts oxidized interfacial films in oil-water emulsions, improving demulsifier efficiency.

  • Polymerization Inhibitor: Prevents oxidation-induced aggregation of sulfur compounds and olefins, reducing sludge formation.

3. Corrosion Inhibitor in Refining

• Applications:

  • Acidic Environments: Mitigates corrosion in pipelines exposed to H2S or CO2 via its reducing properties.

  • Synergistic Formulations: Enhances the performance of amine-based corrosion inhibitors.

4. Wastewater Treatment

• Functions:

  • Heavy Metal Reduction: Converts toxic Cr6+ to less harmful Cr³+ for easier removal.

  • Oxygen Scavenger: Reduces dissolved oxygen in wastewater to minimize microbial-induced corrosion (MIC).
