Cooling Tower Treatment Programs

 Cooling Water Treatment

Evaporative cooling towers are popular as they provide the most cost effective cooling technology for air conditioning and industrial processes. Drought conditions and increasing water usage have combined to decrease the availability and increase the cost of the good quality, low hardness water preferred for cooling tower makeup use. At the same time, stricter environmental restrictions on effluent discharge have resulted in increased fees for disposal of cooling tower blowdown to the sewers. The addition of these concerns to the existing requirements for control of scale, corrosion, deposition, and biological fouling has increased the difficulty and costs associated with operating a cooling tower water system.
