Biofilm Sensor for Open Cooling Towers

In industrial cooling towers, bacterial growth on surfaces (biofilm) causes serious problems, both contributing to the deterioration of materials and, most important, increasing the risk of harmful microbiological contaminations (e.g. Legionella pneumophila). For these reasons, large amounts of chemical ...

Water Management Plans For Hospitals

Hospital acquired infections (HAIs) are one of the nation’s most important public health challenges. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 1.7 million patients contract HAIs every year, and nearly 99,000 of them die. The annual direct medical costs of HAIs to U.S. Hospitals are about $40 Billion. Faulty water systems often are direct contributors to this tragic situation. This means having a strong water management plan is crucial, especially during a pandemic when hospitals are ...

Biofilm effect on Cooling Towers for Industrial Purpose

Cooling towers are used widely in the industry for cooling down a process, there exist many version or types of cooling towers, and each designed with its advantages for the process. The generic term "cooling tower" is used to describe both direct (open circuit) and indirect (closed circuit) heat rejection equipment. While most think of a "cooling tower" as an open direct contact heat rejection device, the indirect cooling tower, sometimes referred to as a "closed circuit cooling tower" is nonetheless also a ...

Legionella Bacteria for Treatment

Advanced oxidation processes eliminate pathogens by interfering with the redox balance in favor of oxidation. Their environment is overwhelmed and starved of electrons to a state not compatible with normal cellular function. There is no possibility of any pathogen building resistance to Bio-hydrox. Not known microorganism is able to survive oxidative stress. Advanced oxidation acts on the surface of the cell wall and does not need to cross that barrier. It destroys the seal by stealing electrons followed by lysis ...
