86-13: Diol Technology: A Unique Non-Heavy Metal Treatment ApproachThis new treatment approach provides results comparable to traditional chromate programs over a wide variety of water qualities and system conditions. This paper presents the results of this treatment approach applied at Ciba Geigy's St. Gabriel, Louisiana Plant. Corrosion rates at the plant have been less than 0. 4 mpy on carbon steel coupons, while eliminating the fouling previously experienced due to inorganic loading. The program takes advantage

and steam velocity profile on heat exchanger tube erosion using CFD

Such a fill would have high performance

the most reliable basis for certification is shake-table-testing

Conventional alkaline treatments utilize phosphonate for calcium carbonate scale control and azole (tolyl triazole) for copper corrosion inhibition

2) pH control at 40+ cycles of concentration are documented

burning polypropylene (PP) and stainless steel plate at 1100C were applied to the top of cooling tower fill samples

and programs are discussed in articles

This code is similar to the open circuit tower in both form and function except for the fluid circuits

plant health and safety considerations and availability of ancillary mechanical treatment systems

This paper identifies cooling tower operating practices that may create increased piping loads and provides deep considerations that can help prevent catastrophic pipe failures

and indeed

The plant can "try before you buy" to provide undisputable evidence of the impact of cooler water
