Cooling water systems are an
integral part of process operations in many industries.
For continuous plant productivity, these systems
require proper chemical treatment and preventive
maintenance. The four problems normally associated
with cooling water systems - corrosion, scale,
fouling and microbiological contamination - contribute
to problems with heat transfer and, ultimately,
the quality of the process. Nalco's treatment
programs are designed to control these problems
in open recirculating, once-through and closed
recirculating systems.
