80-12: Bibliography on the Use of High Dissolved Solids Waters in Cooling Tower Drift

80-12: Bibliography on the Use of High Dissolved Solids Waters in Cooling Tower DriftThe objective of the Task Group on the Use of High Dissolved Solids Waters in Cooling Towers is the preparation of guidelines summarizing the best available information on 1) selection of materials for cooling tower water system construction, 2) common operating problems, and 3) methods for preventing or correcting these problems.

Recent studies have highlighted the advantages of hydroxy phosphono acetic acid (HPA) based formulations compared to those of other phosphonates

A "bonus" value proposition

Many Cooling towers and once through cooling systems' operators are facing tighter regulations on metals concentrations in cooling water discharge

This new inhibitor can not only replace phosphorous-based inhibitors

and indeed

These products were developed with the requirements of specific water treatment segments in mind

Where to look for
