05-12: An Economic Solution to Cooling Tower Drift Energy EvaluationGeneral introduction to cooling tower drift, including its effects on structural steel (corrosion) and lost costs of water and chemicals. Various solutions including the high velocity designs and the Kimre drift eliminator are analyzed for cost effectiveness.
The new fill was rigidly supported from beneath
Ammonia in the cooling loop poses an additional challenge for Hypochlorite or oxidizing biocides in controlling the microbiological activity since monochloramines are not effective biocides
it's important to understand the deterioration mechanisms operating and how best to mitigate the damaging effects before performing repairs and placing them into service
Due to changes in demand and limitations of current testing technology the system is subjected to a series of overfeed/underfeed situations
A study was commissioned with both Environmental Systems Corporation and Midwest Research Institute to conduct modified Method 13A
A reliable filtration system requires the proper design and installation
A major portion of that program involved the use of a computerized fouling monitor
Operational sites have demonstrated significant reductions in operational costs when compared to conventional bromine or chlorine chemicals
also known as the Federal Water Pollution Control Act
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
The use of alternate hardware material is also discussed
