Home to the Sarayköy–Kızıldere field, where Türkiye’s first geothermal power plant was built, Denizli is the pioneering region of Turkish geothermal energy. Alongside power generation, greenhouse and spa use is widespread in the region.
Typical problems in the region
Fluids in and around Kızıldere are long-known examples of high CO₂ content and calcite scaling. Calcite control in production wells, corrosion of surface equipment and exchanger fouling in binary units are the main issues. In greenhouses and spas, plate heat exchanger scale and closed-loop corrosion come to the fore.
- Downhole calcite scale
- CO₂ corrosion
- Scale in greenhouse heating exchangers
- Oxygen-driven corrosion in closed loops
Biyopol’s approach
Downhole scale inhibitor and corrosion programmes for power plants; BiyoGeo HX exchanger conditioner and closed-loop corrosion inhibitors for greenhouses and spas. The programme comes with fluid analysis and a seasonal monitoring plan.
Field support
The Denizli fields are a few hours by road from our İzmir plant. Planned site visits, sampling and a regular delivery schedule can be arranged.
| Application | Main risk | Priority programme |
|---|---|---|
| Power plant production wells | Calcite, CO₂ | Downhole scale inhibitor + corrosion |
| Binary units | Exchanger fouling | Silica and scale programme |
| Greenhouses and spas | Plate exchanger scale, closed-loop corrosion | BiyoGeo HX + closed-loop inhibitor |
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer smaller packaging for greenhouses?
Cans, drums and IBCs are available depending on the product; we advise based on seasonal consumption.
Do you carry out pre-season checks?
Yes; a pre-season water analysis and exchanger assessment are recommended.
Can the same product be used for a power plant and a greenhouse?
Usually different products are needed, as temperature, fluid composition and system type differ.
