15-10: A Progress Report of a Field Evaluation of a Cooling Tower System and Historical Publications

15-10: A Progress Report of a Field Evaluation of a Cooling Tower System and Historical PublicationsThis is the continuation of the detailed independent evaluation of microbiological, corrosion, and deposits control effectiveness in an HVAC cooling tower system over a period of two years only with a non chemical water treatment system. These new results include the evaluation of the cooling tower water quality for both sessile and planktonic microbes and the impact of city water chlorination on bio control and the effectiveness for scale and

Pareto’s Principle was often followed if not strictly applied

will also be presented

The potential damage tooth electric motors and the connected equipment that is caused by fast switching or fast bus reclosure can be quite extensive

Specifically

NWD can be used as all wet cooling tower by using wet/dry lanes as wet sections

The present paper shows the key points for French utilities

thus releasing the use of scarce and valuable higher grade water for other more important uses

Serious questions about cooling tower drift and its potential as an environmental pollutant must be answered if cooling towers are to continue to receive general acceptance as heat rejection equipment for large plant installations

Analytical information which assist in defining performance and explaining results will also be presented in order to enhance the reader's understanding of these programs

sacrificial corrosion methods

and scientific evaluation of several classes on non-chemical treatment devices (NCDs) for efficacy in reducing planktonic (bulk water) and sessile (Biofilm) microbial populations within a pilot-scale cooling system

fan power savings from 10% to more than 50% can be achieved along with water consumption savings from 10% to more than 30%
