INTRODUCTION
COOLING TOWER
Cooling Tower water requires extensive treatment, during this treatment, three main factors must be controlled…
- Corrosion of pipes and heat exchanger units.
- Scaling in pipes and mainly in heat exchangers.
- Microbial growth (bacteria, algae).
- 3,100 times more germicidal than chlorine.
- Eliminates the use of chemicals except for pH balancing.
- Ends discharge liabilities and chemical storage record keeping.
- Destroys all types of microorganisms instantly.
- Minimizes condenser fouling.
- Decomposes organic waste by oxidation.
- Removes existing calcium carbonate scale by destroying the biomass glue bonding agent.
- Ozone is produced on-site and requires no storage of dangerous chemicals.
- Low maintenance cost.
- The most environment friendly oxidant.
- No persistent chemicals of disinfectants in bleed – Ozone breaks down to oxygen.
- Reduces the corrosion rate of metals, including copper heat exchanger.
- Saves on energy costs by increasing the heat transfer efficiency of the chiller.
- Faster Return of Investment due to the above factors.
- Makes the water crystal clear, by eliminating all turbidity.
OZONE REDUCES COSTS IN THE FOLLOWING WAYS…
- Reducing makeup water to the cooling tower by permitting more cycles between blow downs.
- Eliminating the cost and problems in ordering, shipping, handling, storage and disposal of regular chemicals.
- Reducing power consumption by keeping the chiller heat transfer efficiency high through cleaner condenser tubes.
BENEFITS
- Ozone reduces Bio Film Formation
- Destroys all types of Microorganisms
- Controlled Scaling in Pipe Lines
- More Efficient Heat Transfer
- Minimizes condenser fouling
- No chemical residue
