ABSTRACT:
Biofouling in recirculating water systems may be controlled by admixing or otherwise providing 1-bromo-3-chloro-5, 5-dimethylhydantoin ("BCDMH") to the water at a level effective to control biological film-forming organisms and thereafter maintaining the BCDMH concentration at a level sufficient substantially to inhibit regrowth of such organisms.
