About the Farm
A private farm in Izmir, Turkey, cultivating both lavender and vineyards, sought a comprehensive solution for their agricultural and facility needs.
Dual Challenge
The farm needed to address:
- Limescale problems in irrigation systems
- Photosynthesis inhibition caused by limescale cyanide
- Protection of heating and cooling systems in farm buildings
Crops + Farm Buildings

Installation Details
Location
Farm: Private Lavender & Vineyard Farm
Location: Izmir, Turkey
Crops: Lavender and vineyards
Vulcan Installation
Model: Vulcan 550
Installation Point: Water system
Application: Irrigation systems + farm building HVAC
Note: Model 550 is a specialized agricultural model
Results
Crop Benefits
- No blockages in irrigation systems after Vulcan
- Better processed photosynthesis (inhibited by limescale cyanide)
- Plants could be fed more easily
- Plant roots became stronger
- Increased fertilizer and water utilization
- Limescale stains on plants disappeared
Farm Building Benefits
- Heating systems protected against limescale
- Cooling systems protected against limescale
- Equipment in main building protected
- Technical buildings protected against lime and rust
The Science: Photosynthesis & Limescale Cyanide
Limescale in irrigation water can inhibit photosynthesis through the presence of limescale cyanide. By treating the water with Vulcan 550:
- Photosynthesis is better processed
- Plants can utilize nutrients more effectively
- Stronger root systems develop
- Fertilizer and water efficiency increases
Benefits for Agricultural Operations
Irrigation Reliability
No blockages in irrigation systems
Plant Health
Stronger roots, better feeding
Photosynthesis
Improved through limescale treatment
Building Protection
HVAC systems scale-free
The Vulcan 550 is a specialized model designed for agricultural applications, providing comprehensive protection for both irrigation systems and farm building equipment.
- Treats irrigation water for limescale
- Protects heating and cooling systems
- Prevents rust in technical buildings
- Zero maintenance operation
- Chemical-free water treatment
- Model: Vulcan 550
- Location: Izmir, Turkey
