04-15: Development of an On-site Hypobromite Generator CorrosionExisting technology for biological control of cooling water systems uses costly, dangerous to handle, toxic chemicals. In order to eliminate the many problems associated with this technology, a program was started several years ago to develop a system to produce Hypobromite on site from harmless neutral salts using the process of electrolysis. This presentation details some of the development problems encountered in obtaining almost 100% conversion of
and formation of horrendous amounts of foam until it was found that these troubles could be minimized by pre-treatment with lime
we compare several chemistries for the inhibition of such scale formation
Several failed columns and horizontal members were also damaged from ice
highlight recent advances in the use of aluminum and all organic solutions
The purpose of this experiment was to obtain an estimate of the property enhancement for these two FRP production operations which add to product cost
Cooling tower sytems using ozone with and without other treatment will be used as example
dry cooling virtually eliminates water consumption but at higher cost and reduced efficiency
the need to reduce water consumption in cooling towers by increasing the COC is of significant importance
Identifying the true cause(s) of building water system failures is critical to prevention
Surface blisters were noticed in two of the new towers after 2 to 18 months of operation
Evaporative pre-cooling of air cooled heat exchangers provides the thermodynamic advantages of water cooling towers with the reduced maintenance requirements of air cooled heat exchangers
suggest consideration of this construction material
