With MOLLIK to clean water and double production capacity

problem
 The biggest problem was untreated surface water.
This untreated water regularly led to massive deposits in the cooling systems – both in the heat exchangers and on the surface of the cooling dome.

The consequences were obvious:

  • Up to five millimeters of limestone were deposited on the dome's surface – it looked like a lunar landscape.

  • Ventilation slats were completely blocked and the air supply was disrupted.

  • Every four months, laborious mechanical cleaning with hammer and chisel had to be carried out.

  • Every cleaning operation meant additional effort, costs and production risks.

Solution
 The introduction of MOLLIK technology brought about a change.
MOLLIK has been in use for six years – and the systems are gradually cleaning themselves.

  • Today, deposits on the dome are only minimal traces of dust from the factory, which can be removed every three months with a soft brush – even during ongoing production.

  • Cooling towers that were once regularly blocked now remain free of serious deposits for years. Small residues can be easily wiped away by hand.

  • The continuous self-cleaning of the pipes has significantly increased the water flow – the basis for increased production output.

Result
 The effects are clearly measurable:

  • Production capacity has almost doubled – from 20,000–25,000 tons to 45,000 tons per year today.

  • Biocide use massively reduced – from around €50,000 to only around €20,000 per year.

  • Minimal maintenance effort – instead of heavy mechanical cleaning, gentle brushing is now sufficient.

  • Reliability in operation – stable processes without production interruptions.

Customer Quote : "The results were better from the beginning—and they've gotten even better over time. Today, all it takes is a light brushing of the dome every few months. Our production has nearly doubled, and the cost of biocides has dropped massively. It's almost magical and hard to explain—but it works."

Linda Meyer's experience: Finally showering without itching

problem
 Linda Meyer has suffered from atopic dermatitis since childhood. Anything minor on her skin could trigger a new flare-up. Shower water, in particular, was a daily stressor for her:

  • Hard water dried out her skin

  • After showering, the skin often itched and burned for hours

  • Scratching made the neurodermatitis worse

  • In addition, stubborn limescale deposits formed in the shower, which had to be laboriously removed

For a long time, showering, actually a moment of relaxation, was associated with discomfort and tension for Linda.

Solution
 In her search for a gentle and effective solution, Linda came across the Vodaclean shower gel .
She installed it in her shower – and immediately noticed the difference:

  • The water felt softer and more pleasant on the skin

  • After showering there was no more itching and burning

  • Her skin felt soft, fresh and soothed

Result
 Since Linda started using the shower hero, her everyday life has changed noticeably:

  • Your skin remains relaxed – without itching, without burning

  • No limescale battle in the shower – deposits can be easily wiped away with a damp cloth

  • Her dog "Balu" also loves the new water – he prefers the water from the shower to the untreated tap water

Quote from Linda: "Since I got the Shower Hero, my skin finally feels soft. No itching, no burning—I can enjoy showering again. And even my dog ​​prefers the shower water to regular tap water."

Wendelstein 7-X fusion reactor: Higher cooling capacity for maximum stability

problem
 Operating a fusion reactor like the Wendelstein 7-X places extreme demands on cooling. Even the smallest deviations in temperature control can jeopardize plasma stability, cause deposits in the systems, and shorten the service life of sensitive components. At the same time, the strictest safety and sustainability standards must be adhered to.

Solution
 The use of MATpure® has significantly increased cooling performance in the complex environment of the Wendelstein 7-X. The system improves temperature control, reduces deposits, and operates with low chemical emissions—a decisive advantage in such a safety-critical environment.

Result

  • Plasma stability of over 10 minutes – a new benchmark for reactor operation

  • Less deposits on sensitive components

  • Extended service life of critical components

  • Reduced use of chemicals without compromising on safety or sustainability

Rostock power plant: Baltic Sea water treatment with MOL catalysts

problem
Until now, the treatment of Baltic Sea water has been associated with high costs and complex processing steps. Despite considerable effort, the water was often not immediately usable at the desired quality. Those responsible therefore asked themselves: Is there a solution that works reliably, simplifies processes, and simultaneously saves costs?

Solution
 The partnership with MOL found precisely this solution. By using specially developed MOL catalysts directly at the Baltic Sea water extraction site, the entire process was radically simplified:

  • no additional treatment necessary

  • stable water quality that meets all requirements

  • a reliable collaboration with a partner you can rely on in the long term

Result
 The effect is clearly noticeable – in the processes and in the numbers:

  • The water quality is so high that further treatment steps are completely unnecessary

  • Costs have been reduced by around 80% – today only around 20% of the previous expenditure is incurred

  • A clear economic advantage combined with a cooperative partnership that provides security and trust

Customer quote
 "Our collaboration with MOL goes back many years, and we've found a partner we can rely on. The catalysts bring the water directly to the required quality – without any further treatment. This gives us a significant economic advantage today because we only have to pay for the catalyst. That's perhaps 20% of what we were doing before."
