Maximize The Target COC For Your System<\/h2>\n<p>Determine the maximum COC your application can withstand based on your incoming make up water quality and heat exchange temperatures. A simple sliding ruler style \u201cStability Index Calculator\u201d can provide the system\u2019s scaling tendency, corrosion characteristics, and optimal chemical application. More advanced methods can also be used for complex systems, and your water treater should be able to assist you in this calculation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/stability-index-calculator.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"321\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/stability-index-calculator.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/stability-index-calculator-300x107.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/stability-index-calculator-768x274.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/stability-index-calculator-150x54.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you find your system is operating at a lower COC than allowable, try adjusting your system to maximize the COC.

Reduce Uncontrolled Water Loss<\/h2>\n<p>The first step to reaching your desired COC is to eliminate areas of uncontrolled water loss. Using a typical HVAC system as an example, here are some areas that may be contributing to water loss in a system.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pipe-with-water.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"314\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pipe-with-water.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pipe-with-water-300x105.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pipe-with-water-768x268.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pipe-with-water-150x52.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>A) Poor Level Control Resulting In Overflow From Tower Basin Or Sump<\/h3>\n<p>Cooling tower sump levels are often controlled by a simple float mechanism; allowing water to enter when the float drops, and closing a valve when the float has risen to the target level. Your system may also be equipped with overflow protection that will send water to the drain before it spills out over the top of the sump. While this prevents flooding, it often results in undetected water loss because there is no direct evidence this is occurring. Float system inspection should be part of your preventative maintenance program to verify valves are closing completely and effectively maintaining the desired water level. Similar issues may occur with leaking water inlet solenoids.<\/p>\n<h3>B) Preventing Overflow When System Cycles Off<\/h3>\n<p>Cooling circulation will often cycle on and off when area cooling is desired.  When the tower cycles off, any water that remains in the piping above the cooling tower sump will drain back to the sump.  If there is not adequate head space between the float control level and the overflow pipe, this will result in uncontrolled water loss each time the system cycles off.  Contact your cooling tower contractor to correct this.<\/p>\n<h3>C) Ensure All Automatic Control Valves Are Working Correctly<\/h3>\n<p>Verify that the bleed valve and filter backwash valves are not allowing water to drain when they are closed. These are commonly hard plumbed to drain so leaks often go undetected.<\/p>\n<h3>D) Inspect Pumps To Ensure The Packing Is Not Allowing Water To Leak From System To Drain<\/h3>\n<p>A small leak of as little as 0.1 GPM can leak 25,000 gallons of water to drain during a 180 day cooling season.<\/p>\n<h3>E) Inspect Tower Drift Eliminator Operation<\/h3>\n<p>Poor drift elimination results in unevaporated water droplets leaving the cooling tower.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Use A Conductivity Based Bleed Controller<\/h2>\n<p>The simplest and most cost effective way to control COC is to install a conductivity controller which will automate the bleed process by measuring and maintaining the system water conductivity. The conductivity controller and bleed meter will provide a control system that can maintain the water conductivity within a target COC range. When conductivity reaches the max setting, the concentrated water is sent to drain and fresh make up water refills the system. For best practices, monitoring make up and bleed meter volume is also recommended.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pramod-controller.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"239\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11873\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pramod-controller.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pramod-controller-300x80.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pramod-controller-768x204.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/pramod-controller-150x40.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This type of automated system can generate substantial savings as compared to a timer based bleed system which actually results in more water going to drain when an uncontrolled water loss is occurring, compounding the loss and cost.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Pre-Treat Make Up Water To Increase COC<\/h2>\n<p>There are several common pre-treatment options available to remove minerals or adjust the properties of the incoming make-up water to allow the system to operate at increased COC. The decision regarding the best option for your specific operation should be discussed with your water treatment professional and will depend upon your incoming water quality and your organization\u2019s priorities.<\/p>\n<p>The following table provides a qualitative comparison of the different considerations for each of the common pre-treatment methods for Great Lakes water quality only.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/ROI-on-equipment.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"223\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/ROI-on-equipment.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/ROI-on-equipment-300x74.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/ROI-on-equipment-768x190.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/ROI-on-equipment-150x37.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<div style=\"font-size:0.8em; text-align:center;\">*Based on Great Lakes water quality<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Each organization may weigh these considerations differently, which may lead to a different optimal solution. Note, the water droplets are grayed out for the RO option because water savings are only generated if there is an on-site user for the reject water.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Utilize A Water Treatment Data Management System<\/h2>\n<p>Online data management programs for water treatment, such as AquaAnalytics, have proven to save water by actively monitoring the system and sending out alerts when program deviations occur, allowing for swift reactions and loss prevention. Long term trends can also be identified and benchmarked, providing valuable insight into continuous improvement opportunities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/iPad-with-graph.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"282\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11869\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/iPad-with-graph.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/iPad-with-graph-300x94.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/iPad-with-graph-768x241.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.duboischemicals.com\/water-treatment\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/08\/iPad-with-graph-150x47.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Conclusions<\/h3>\n<p>With many looking for ways to save and \u201cstop the bleeding\u201d during challenging times it is important to not overlook your cooling tower bleed.
