90-08: An Alternative Oxidizer, Bromine Offers a Northeast Chemical Plant Specifications of Cooling Tower Water Treatments

90-08: An Alternative Oxidizer, Bromine Offers a Northeast Chemical Plant Specifications of Cooling Tower Water TreatmentsChlorine was historically used as the oxidizing microbiocide at this location as it was considered the most economic alternative. Recent changes in state law, with respect to the storage of chlorine gas, forced the plant to review other oxidizing chemistries, which previously were considered economically unattractive. A trial was run on solid bromine releasing compounds and on activated sodium bromide. Change in corrosion rates and in the amount and

The model is based on theoretical considerations

One solution to this problem is the use of a variety of materials

Regulation I of the Texas Air Control Board stipulates that mist emitted from cooling towers shall not cause a highway visibility hazard
