84-04: Chemical Feeding Devices for Cooling Tower Waters Cooling Tower Water Treatment ProgramsA report summarizing the currently available types of chemicals.

This paper examines the correlation between structure of aromatic triazoles and the ease of their biodegradation

Many cooling tower designs now require special consideration to reduce their impact on the environment and facilitate site permitting

Comparisons have been conducted versus both bench tests

permissible hot and cold-water temperatures

extra cellular polymers

The timely removal of such debris form the cooling towers is essential

A test configuration with a different number of measurements and instrumentation can lead to changes in the uncertainty and the resultant calculated tower capability

and operational reliability for evaporative cooling equipment

Photographs of operating towers will highlight icing problems

A case study of a cooling tower installation in a refinery will be presented

and background noise

The mechanism and characteristics of fan stall and discussed in some detail together with detection methods enabling defective cells to be identified and targeted for prioritized repair
