• Corrosion of heat exchangers and piping.
• Energy loss to heat exchanger due to scale.
• Energy loss to heat exchanger due to adhering slime.
• Risk of health damage due to detection of Legionella bacteria.
1. Prevention of heat exchanger fouling
Even a small amount of adhering scale or slime in heat exchangers greatly reduces heat exchange efficiency.
Cooling water treatment achieves energy saving and cost saving by prevention of adhering scale and slime.
2 Corrosion prevention
If corrosion of the metals used in heat exchangers and piping occurs, it may lead to major trouble that makes equipment operation impossible, such as broken holes in heat exchangers, etc.
It is possible to achieve stable operation and extend equipment life by controlling the occurrence of corrosion.
3. Prevention of slime adhesion
Microorganisms form slime by multiplying in polysaccharides which they themselves produce.
Since disinfectants are ineffective against microorganisms in slime, water treatment that prevents slime deposition is important.
4. Disinfection of Legionella bacteria
The Legionella bacterium causes Legionnaires' disease, a Category IV infectious disease, and is known to multiply in cooling water systems.
The risk of health damage is reduced by appropriate use of cooling water treatment agents that are effective for eliminating Legionella bacteria.
