03-20: Power Plant Restores Cooling System Performance With Bio-detergentCooling tower performance deteriorates continuously over time, but only manifests itself as a problem during adverse ambient conditions. For a power plant this can have severe economic consequences as peak power demand coincides with the very ambient conditions that can limit cooling capacity and power output. This work documents the results achieved in a successful bio detergent application at a 26 MW power plant.

One of the most significant advances started during the middle 1960's when the organophosphates were introduced commercially

The Merkel Theory was published in 1925 and demonstrated that heat transfer in evaporative cooling tower was approximately proportional to a difference of enthalpies

and immunity to rot and decay

which included preassembly of sixty-four (64)

lower corrosion rates

as a versatile microbiocide suitable for use in many diverse treatment applications

gear reducers

and cycles of concentration

Most industrial cooling towers utilize orthophosphate

A program of continuous feed of 3 ppm of Tolyltriazole reduced Admiralty Brass corrosion rates from 1

and make more recommendations specific to evaporative cooling equipment for verification of post-test functionality
