96-01: Wood Preservation and How It Pertains to the Cooling Tower Industry Codes and Standards

96-01: Wood Preservation and How It Pertains to the Cooling Tower Industry Codes and StandardsThe proposed presentation would center on proper wood treatment of wood members that are destined for the harsh environment of the Cooling Tower Industry. The program would include: 1) Wood species and their treat ability 2) Preparation of the wood products before treatment a) Incising type and description b) Moisture content c) Stress reduction 3) Treatment techniques a) Waterborne preservatives b) Procedures 4) Post treatment 5) Handling and storing

flexibility and finally price

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

Water is currently a major object of interest in industries because it has great applicability

Both of these materials are known to degrade in the presence of chlorine or bromine biocides

Polarization and electrochemical noise experiments

This paper will discuss the approach and results used in this cooling tower application
