Cooling Tower Decontamination and Treatment

Numerous problems arises once bacteria colonise surfaces and in-fills. It reduces heat extraction efficiency, distort airflow, trap particulates, causes fouling, corrosion, scaling, disrupt water distribution. Legionella Bacteria (Legionnaires ’ disease) is a potentially fatal form of pneumonia and the highest profile danger to human health associated with the mechanical plant of modern air conditioned buildings that can affect anybody any time. It is beyond doubt that high level of Legionella bacteria are found in cooling towers. This means that Legionnaires’ disease may be released at any time and can cause significant health issues.

Once bacteria colonize surfaces and produce bio-films (jelly), numerous problems arise including reduced heat transfer, extraction efficiency, trap particulate, disrupt water distribution, distort air flows and causes fouling, corrosion, scaling, contribute to potentially human health hazards.

A clean cooling tower results in colder water being delivered to the chiller, thereby increasing chiller efficiency. Cooling tower and heat exchanger is like the lungs and heart of the human body. Similarly, when your cooling tower and heat exchanger isn’t clean, the heat exchange process doesn’t work efficiently and the health of your production and process cooling system suffers.Images shows cooling tower before decontamination. Numerous problems arise once bacteria colonize surface and produce bio-films (jelly) on the cooling tower including reduced heat and extraction efficiency, distort air flows, trap particulates, causes fouling, corrosion, scaling, disrupt water distribution, harborage to legionella bacteria.
