Cooling Water Treatment

Cooling Water Treatment:

Cooling water in industries if untreated , can cause severe problems such as

  • Scaling
  • Fouling
  • Corrosion
  • Microbiological Deposits
  • Wood Deterioration
  • Foaming

This often results in

  • Reduced Or Uneven Heat Transfer
  • Product Loss Due To Ineffective Operation
  • Unexpected Equipment Shutdown
  • Increased Water Usage & Pumping Cost
  • Higher Maintenance Cost
  • Shortened Equipment Life
  • Equipment Corrosion

Corrosion is one of the major problems affecting performance, safety and efficiency of cooling systems. Use of chemical inhibitors remains the most practical and cost effective means of preventing corrosion. Corrosion is chiefly a chemical phenomenon, rusting involves oxidation of iron. Various chemical factors influence the course of corrosion in a recirculating water system. These include pH, dissolved oxygen, dissolved salts and certain ions like sulphide and chloride which accelerate corrosion.

Besides chemical characteristics, flow velocity and temperature are the two main physical factors that affect corrosion. Apart form physical and chemical characteristics, biological factors can induce corrosion. This form of corrosion is promoted by certain type of bacterial organisms.

Corrosion can occur both in open circulating systems and closed chilled water plants. To arrest the above problem, corrosion inhibitor is a substance which when added in small concentrations to an environment effectively reduces the corrosion rate of a metal exposed to that environment. The inhibition is achieved through interaction or reaction between the corrosion inhibitor and the metal surface, resulting in the formation of an inhibitive surface film.
