Take your cooling tower to the CAR WASH

-

Patent Pending :-)

BUT WHAT ABOUT ALL THAT DRIFT?
Cooling towers have for the most part been out-of-sight, out-of-mind until now! They have served their purpose well and will be around for many more years to come.  
However, we are seeing many being replaced with designs that address more water conservation operations.  A number of tower manufactures are making adjustments/design changes to meet the unique nature or zero bleed and WCTI chemistry.
Look around- and you will see both direct and indirect evaporative cooling systems popping up everywhere - especially in the high tech data center markets as engineers are looking to minimize the use of water as the primary cooling media.

One company (WCTI) has taken on this shortage full force and has offered hundreds of customers now with its low cost Zero Bleed Silica Based programs with total cooling tower plant discharge of the LESS than 2% - without compromising system performance.
  • WHY? - Fresh water is getting harder to come by in so many drought stricken areas and with others the cost of water is getting very high to produce and even more so in disposing of this used process water.
  • WAIT A SECOND?: - many are asking "aren't you creating sodium enriched type salt deposits" - why yes indeed we are, and with a simple wash down they end up looking like brand new. OH BY THE WAY, the wash down water goes right back into the tower [not down the drain] to live another day in this silica based treatment life cycle. 
  • BUT WHAT ABOUT ALL THE DRIFT on the surrounding areas and other equipment?  Well, to this we simply reply by asking the question "are you having a drift problem now? and if so, are you not concerned about the losses of energy with all that drift and also the toxic nature of the drift laden fallout with hazardous chemicals"?
QUESTION:  What would you rather have land on you and your equipment as you walk around the tower 1) no drift, 2) sea water type spray, 3) or hazardous chemicals?
  • FIX YOUR DRIFT PROBLEMS and then this all simply goes away and we can get back to saving millions of gallons of water with the lowest corrosion rates in the industry under bio-static conditions!

Discussion About the Dolphin System

Reference document: 089 03/15/2006 Discussion About the Dolphin System Waterside Asset Management, Gordon Guthrie - Consultant Starting with potatoes skins & tannin, water treatment has taken on many forms. Since then technology has allowed us to experiment with both chemical and mechanical means. Chemical approaches to water problems have certainly been the main thrust; however, there have been a good symbiotic relationship with mechanical devices such as the DA mechanically stripping the oxygen and sulfite acting as a chemical scavenger. One without the other in this case is not in the best interest of the user. Other mechanical devises have served alongside with chemicals, filtration, DAF’s, belt press, softeners, DI, RO, etc… I have recently had the opportunity to study the Dolphin system in a way that I was not able before (being chemically biased) and have come to the conclusion that the pulsed electrical field has worked and does have merit in the water conditioning and tr
