Cooling systems

Protect the heat-transfer duty through a considered approach to cooling-water chemistry.

Cooling systems — illustrative application contextIllustrative application context
01 / THE CHALLENGE

Understand the duty before the treatment.

Concentrating salts, suspended matter and corrosion can complicate heat transfer and circuit reliability. Treatment selection depends on the complete water balance and the materials in the system.

Conditions that shape the decision

  • Make-up water quality and concentration cycles
  • Circuit metallurgy, heat load and operating history
  • Blowdown, deposits and current treatment programme
02 / THE APPROACH

Define the mechanism. Scope the evaluation.

Review the circuit as a whole, then define the chemistry duty and monitoring plan. BRONEL CW 220 is a development candidate for a scope agreed against the specific system.

01

A complete circuit view

Consider make-up, circulation, heat exchange and blowdown together. A single water sample cannot describe every operating condition.

02

A defined monitoring plan

Agree where samples are taken and how observations will be compared before assessing a candidate treatment.
