Biodegradable chelating agents are a type of water treatment chemical used to remove heavy metals from water. They are composed of organic molecules that bind to metal ions, allowing them to be removed from the water. These agents are biodegradable, meaning they can be broken down by microorganisms in the environment, reducing their environmental impact. They are often used in industrial wastewater treatment, as well as in the treatment of drinking water. Biodegradable chelating agents are becoming increasingly popular due to their environmental benefits. They are also more cost-effective than traditional chelating agents, making them a viable option for many water treatment applications. Some companies in the biodegradable chelating agents market include AkzoNobel, BASF, Dow, Solvay, and Kemira. Show Less Read more
