Where it fits
Boiler feedwater & condensate programs, closed hot-water loops, and sealed circuits requiring low-oxygen operation.
Product Water Treatment
Oxygen Scavenger Blend
Oxygen scavenger program chemical used to reduce dissolved oxygen (DO) and limit corrosion in boilers, condensate return, and closed-loop systems. Available with lane-dependent chemistry options and documentation support for repeat procurement.
Chemistry options: sulfite/catalyzed sulfite or alternative blends (per inquiry)
Packaging: drums / IBC / bulk (as applicable)
Documentation: SDS / COA / TDS on request
Lead time depends on lane, packaging & volume
Commercial overview
Dissolved oxygen accelerates corrosion in carbon steel and mixed-metal systems, especially where temperature, pressure changes, or poor deaeration allow oxygen ingress. Oxygen scavenger blends are used as part of a boiler/closed-loop program to consume residual oxygen, stabilize corrosion rates, and reduce the risk of pitting in vulnerable areas (returns, low-flow zones, and heat-transfer surfaces).
Why buyers specify it
Lower corrosion risk, fewer iron carryover issues, and improved stability for long-run operation and maintenance planning.
Procurement-ready supply
Standard packaging options and documentation packs to support onboarding, QA release, and repeat ordering.
Tip
Share your DO target, operating temperature, and whether you have a deaerator—chemistry selection and dose strategy depend on the system design.
Applications
Typical usage patterns. Tell us your process and constraints and we’ll align the right specification.
- Boiler feedwater treatment (oxygen removal downstream of deaeration)
- Condensate return line protection (minimize oxygen-driven pitting)
- Closed-loop hot-water circuits (HVAC, district heating, process loops)
- Seasonal layup / standby protection (program-dependent)
Feed strategy
Continuous dosing to maintain a defined residual (where applicable), with monitoring at representative points.
Performance focus
Drive DO down and stabilize corrosion rates; reduce iron transport and deposit formation over time.
Program alignment
Often paired with alkalinity/pH control and corrosion inhibitor packages depending on metallurgy and operating range.
Typical specifications & formats
Values depend on blend chemistry and customer requirements. Confirm details on quotation.

How oxygen scavengers are typically specified
Use this as an RFQ checklist—final values are confirmed by COA and program requirements.
| Specify | Examples | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| System | Boiler feedwater, condensate return, closed loop | Defines temperature/residence time and suitable chemistry lane |
| Operating window | Temp range, pressure, make-up rate | Affects reaction speed and dosing approach |
| Monitoring | DO target, residual target (if used), iron trend | Determines control strategy and performance verification |
| Packaging & logistics | Drum/IBC/bulk, delivery frequency, destination | Ensures practical handling, storage, and repeat ordering consistency |
Important
Oxygen scavengers are part of a program: controlling air ingress and maintaining proper venting often delivers the biggest DO reduction.
Specifications may vary depending on batch, origin, blend chemistry, and packaging selection.
Safety, storage & handling
Follow SDS guidance for the specific blend chemistry. Keep containers closed, avoid contamination, and ensure compatibility with your dosing equipment. Use appropriate PPE and site procedures during handling and transfer.
Storage
Store sealed, away from incompatible chemicals; protect from extreme temperatures per SDS.
Transfer
Use dedicated lines/pumps where possible; avoid cross-contamination that can impact performance.
Commissioning
Confirm feed point, mixing, and monitoring plan before ramping to steady-state operation.
