Everflux® is AWC's high-performance membrane antiscalant engineered specifically for seawater reverse osmosis systems (SWRO). Unlike conventional antiscalants, Everflux delivers superior scale inhibition at ultra-low doses, helping plants dramatically reduce chemical consumption, lower operating costs and simplify logistics.
Every Everflux dosage recommendation is backed by Proton®, AWC's advanced membrane antiscalant modeling software, ensuring precise dosing and enabling operators to confidently maintain operation within the optimized antiscalant range.

Performance in Demanding Conditions
Build to Perform Where Conventional Antiscalants Reach Their Limits
Stable Performance in Warm Seawater
Effective scale inhibition in warm seawater environments where higher temperatures can accelerate scale formation
Optimized for High-pH Second-Pass RO
Suited for second-pass RO systems operating at elevated pH for boron removal
Control of Magnesium Hydroxide Scaling
Effective inhibition of magnesium hydroxide scaling under challenging high-pH operating conditions
Performance Across Challenging Feedwater
Performance across a wide range of seawater compositions and operating conditions, providing flexibility for plants facing variable feedwater quality
Reduced Phosphorus Loads in the Brine Stream
Ultra-low dose rate reduces phosphorus discharge compared to conventional antiscalants
Proven Performance in Large-Scale SWRO Operations
Everflux is trusted by desalination plants worldwide, with a growing reference base across large-scale SWRO facilities operating under high-temperature, high-recovery, and high-pH conditions.
Case Study 1:
Middle East SWMO Plant
Location: Middle East
Operating Conditions: High recovery SWRO plant operating under warm seawater conditions with severe magnesium hydroxide scaling potential.
Challenge: Conventional antiscalants required dosage rates of ~0.5 ppm, resulting in large chemical volumes, complex logistics, high OPEX, and unreliable scale control under their extreme operating conditions.
Everflux Results & Benefits:
- check_circle Chemical consumption reduced by >89%
- check_circle Annual antiscalant usage reduced from 78 tons with previous antiscalant to 8 tons
- check_circle Inventory reduced from ~3.5 containers to half a container annually
- check_circle >$80,000 in annual cost savings from reduced chemical and logistics costs
- check_circle Fewer shipments, lower transport emissions, and reduced phosphorus discharge
- check_circle Stable long-term operation with no compromise in membrane performance
Case Study 2:
Mediterranean SWRO Plant
Location: Mediterranean
Operating Conditions: High-recovery SWRO plant treating warm Mediterranean seawater, with high pH for boron rejection and elevated scaling potential from magnesium hydroxide.
Challenge: Seasonal temperature spikes during the hot Mediterranean summer accelerated scale formation, while high pH operation, necessary for boron compliance in agricultural water, further increased the risk of magnesium hydroxide scale formation. Conventional antiscalants compounded these challenges, requiring high dosages that led to large chemical volumes, more frequent cleanings, complex logistics, and elevated OPEX.
Everflux Results & Benefits:
- check_circle Chemical consumption reduced by >91%
- check_circle Annual antiscalant usage reduced from 130 tons to 11 tons (~0.5 container)
- check_circle Inventory reduced from ~6.5 containers to half a container, annually
- check_circle >$179,000 in annual cost savings from reduced chemical and logistics costs
- check_circle Everflux maintained performance without dosage increase despite seasonal spikes
- check_circle Fewer shipments and lower chemical volumes reduced transport emissions and the plant’s chemical footprint
