 Tolcide® PSA
A New Standard in Holistic Microbial Control

Tolcide® PS 50A and Tolcide® PS

70A are Solvay’s 3rd generation
THPS products with enhanced
biocidal performance. These ready
to use biocides combine both
THPS and biopenetrant to give
superior microbial control.

Feedback from end-users:

w Reduction of H2S in
production systems

w Reduction of MIC leading to

increased tubular lifetime
w Improved injectivity in WI &
PWRI systems
w Experiment conducted in a sand-packed bioreactor
w Generic THPS is able to control souring
w Tolcide® PS 50 A was shown to be fundamentally more
effective than generic THPS, as demonstrated by the
reduced recovery rate after treatment
w Experiment conducted in a sand-packed bioreactor
w Tolcide® PS 50 A dosed continuously at low dosage is
able to inhibit H2S production

w Improved productivity due to

FeS stabilized crude oil

 The way we do business
Solvay puts into practice a sustainable development policy called Solvay Way because we are convinced our future is depen-
dent upon the responsible way in which we conduct our current activities — a way that reflects our commitment to each of our
stakeholders. Solvay Way encompasses three interlinked, equally important spheres: the Environment Sphere, the People
Sphere and the Economic Sphere.

Based on a framework of responsibilities, Solvay Way allows Solvay sites and businesses to conduct self-assessments of their
practices and establish action plans that promote continuous progress. At Solvay, the way we do business creates sustainable
value for all our stakeholders through innovation and partnership.
