97-03: An Effective Method for Non-Chemical Control of Microbial Activity Repair and ConstructionThis paper describes the methodology and results from a field test of a novel electric water treatment system for cooling towers. The technology has been widely used in Europe for over 5 years with success, and is now commercially available in the United States. The Cooling Tower tested was a new installation used to support shop air compressors in a manufacturing facility in Connecticut. The heart of the device is a variable high frequency

and biological concerns

Abstract: A safe

Demolition and rebuilding of a tower while keeping the plant on-line at full power presents special challenges and solutions

scaling and corrosion

Failure to control biofouling in industrial water systems can lead to reduced system efficiency

The significant increase in heat load in cooling water systems in distilleries

This redirection of force is currently being employed to eliminate scaling and biofouling successfully in cooling towers around the globe

Factories employing cooling systems were forced to reduce chromates to less than 0

development

The term fouling refers to the formationof inorganic and /or organic deposits on surfaces

these cooling systems must also operate efficiently

The subsequent performance tests I '85-'87 indicated a drastic degradation in performance
