16-06: Novel And Efficient Non Phosphorus Cooling Water Corrosion Inhibitor Miscellaneous

16-06: Novel And Efficient Non Phosphorus Cooling Water Corrosion Inhibitor MiscellaneousCorrosion may cause deleterious problems in cooling water systems and typically, when poorly controlled, may lead to decreased plant efficiency due to loss of heat transfer or even equipment failure. Most industrial cooling towers utilize orthophosphate, polyphosphates or other phosphorous containing water treatment programs as corrosion mitigation measures. However, the use of such corrosion inhibitors is steadfastly becoming the object of federal

Lab and field studies show that the new material allows for a reduction in active biocide levels compared to a traditional biocide while at the same time providing for a higher degree of control over biofilm

or the equivalent of say 14

Prediction of recirculation allowances is generally provided by CTI (Cooling Technology Institute

When evaluations needed to be done to understand the structural integrity of the materials used after years of service of the towers

While PVC is long known as a flame retardant polymer

Many types of monitors are used in cooling systems to determine fouling rates

The wind tunnel testing utilized scale models of the as-built tower structure from 3D laser scans to maintain an accurate depiction of site conditions

Cooling Tower Specialist

operation and treatment of open evaporative cooling systems are discussed

Ever-increasing electrical generating plant size and service requirements demand a high degree of refinement of both technologies in an effort to keep the not-inconsiderable costs of such towers to a realistic minimum

That means that a level playing field for axial impeller performance comparisons is absent

We discuss training
