The related reference product is the single biocidal product ‘No 06-05: Preservative 06-05’ (Authorisation number EU-0031652-0025), which is a part of the related reference biocidal product family ‘LANXESS CMIT/MIT biocidal product family’. The application was recorded under case number BC-UP032735-15 in the Register for Biocidal Products. The related reference biocidal product family ‘LANXESS CMIT/MIT biocidal product family’ was authorised by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2750 (3), with authorisation number EU-0031652-0000. ---|--- (2) | The single biocidal product ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ contains CMIT/MIT (3:1) as the active substance, included in the Union list of approved active substances referred to in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for product-types 6, 11, 12 and 13. ---|--- (3) | On 19 July 2024, the Agency submitted to the Commission its opinion (4) and the draft summary of the biocidal product characteristics (‘SPC’) of ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013. ---|--- (4) | In its opinion, the Agency concludes that the proposed differences between the single biocidal product ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ and the related single biocidal product ‘No 06-05: Preservative 06-05’, which is a part of the related reference biocidal product family ‘LANXESS CMIT/MIT biocidal product family’, are limited to information which can be subject to an administrative change in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013 (5), and that based on the assessment of the related reference biocidal product family ‘LANXESS CMIT/MIT biocidal product family’ and subject to compliance with the draft SPC, the same single biocidal product ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ meets the conditions laid down in Article 19(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. ---|--- (5) | On 10 January 2025, the Agency transmitted to the Commission the revised SPC of ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ in all the official languages of the Union in accordance with Article 44(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. ---|--- (6) | The Commission concurs with the opinion of the Agency and considers it therefore appropriate to grant a Union authorisation for the same single biocidal product ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’. ---|--- (7) | The expiry date of the authorisation should be aligned with the expiry date of the authorisation of the related reference biocidal product family ‘LANXESS CMIT/MIT biocidal product family’. ---|--- (8) | The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products, ---|--- HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION: Article 1 A Union authorisation with authorisation number EU-0032996-0000 is granted to MacDermid Hungary Kft for the making available on the market and use of the same single biocidal product ‘Fernox Biocide AF10’ in accordance with the summary of the biocidal product characteristics set out in the Annex. The Union authorisation is valid from 11 June 2025 until 31 October 2034.

Use-specific instructions During the shutdown of production, it is recommended to counteract microbiological growth inside the membrane elements. Before the shutdown, the plant shall be cleaned first, to remove all sorts of deposits like carbonates, salts, silica, organic matter or biomass. For this purpose, specialized membrane cleaners are used. After cleaning, the plant is flushed with permeate quality water until neutral pH is achieved. Only after these cleaning steps, CMIT/MIT containing water is reaching the plant and is regularly circulated by slow pumping. The biocidal product shall be added to the fill-water (permeate quality), to avoid microbiological growth during longer shut downs. During longer shut downs, the fill-water shall be regularly circulated by slow pumping and sampled to check for a microbiological re-contamination. A shift in pH can be a first indication of a re-contamination by microbiology. In this case the fill-up solution shall be replaced. The dose strongly depends on the formulation and intended use of the product to which the preservative is added. Therefore, the user shall determine dosage requirements for their specific matrix/system to be preserved. The lowest effective dose shall be used. See general directions for use. 4.13.2.
