How Clean Is Your Cooling Water?

Side-stream filtration reduces cooling tower operating and maintenance costs.
Vortisand Engineering Team, Evoqua Water Technologies
October 12, 2018
No Comments

During process cooling, the cooling water absorbs large volumes of airborne particulate while the cooling tower acts as an air scrubber, filtering the surrounding air. With time, these fine particles can build up and settle within the system, adversely affecting cooling performance while lowering the life of wetted subcomponents.
