The goals of cooling water treatment systems are to minimize corrosion, inhibit scale formation, control biological activity, avoid fouling, and minimize water consumption. Physical water treatment devices, often referred to as non-chemical devices or NCDs…
Alloys of aluminum are being implemented in heat transfer applications, including hot water boilers, more frequently due to aluminum’s very high conductance of heat. However, aluminum is much more expensive and highly reactive when compared…
A dealkalizer is a pre-treatment device commonly seen in boiler rooms which is responsible for removing carbonate alkalinity in the feed water before it reaches the boiler. In many cases, the water chemistry parameter which…
In challenging times it is very easy to overlook some preventative maintenance items. Your cooling tower filtration system is its first line of defense against many issues. Without filtration, the buildup of airborne dirt and…
Boiler water treatment is critical to ensuring your boiler is operating as efficiently as possible and no proper water treatment program is complete without a thorough understanding of the feedwater setup. A crucial step in…
Water treatment has long been a “black box”. At AquaAnalytics, we believe in removing this stigma. Our blogs are a great place for our passionate engineers to share some of their knowledge with you. Does…
Operating process water systems involves managing many factors to ensure that your operating goals are achieved in the most technically and financially efficient method possible. The heat transfer fluid (water) itself provides a number of…
Why Should You Have A Deaerator? Raising steam for your facility requires water, and depending on the steam plant’s size and design, the volume of feedwater needed can be small or quite large. Some applications…
Cooling water plays a vital role in transferring heat away from mission-critical equipment and processes, such as manufacturing, cold storage and air conditioning. Foaming in cooling water can occur rapidly, for no obvious reason, and…
New evaporative cooling systems, typically cooling towers, ammonia condensers and fluid coolers are manufactured with several options for materials of construction, each with their own benefits and draw backs. Hot-dipped galvanized steel (steel that has…
