Cooling Water Treatment
Cooling water treatment is the process of conditioning water used in cooling towers, heat exchangers, and closed-loop systems to prevent scale formation, corrosion, fouling, and microbiological growth. Proper treatment ensures efficient heat transfer, protects equipment, reduces energy consumption, and extends system lifespan.
A complete cooling water treatment program combines water pretreatment, chemical dosing, and continuous monitoring. Scale and corrosion inhibitors protect metal surfaces, while biocides control biofilm, algae and bacteria, including Legionella. Operational controls such as blowdown and conductivity management help maintain optimal water chemistry.
Effective cooling water treatment improves system reliability, lowers maintenance costs, and supports safe, compliant operation across industrial, commercial, and HVAC applications.
