Kurita`s biofouling prevention for Cooling towers

Optimum heat transfer is the most important in every water-cooled process. Scale, corrosion, and biofouling negatively affect heat transfer. A variety of deposits can foul the cooling circuit and this situation might lead to a loss of efficiency in heat transfer. That is why cleaning is so important: It minimizes the microbiological risk and prevents corrosion. Kurita has developed the fouling ...

ACF Technology For Preventing Fouling and Corrosion

Ammonium salt fouling is an omnipresent threat in oil refineries. It may lead to insecure operational conditions with high production losses. Salt deposition is frequently detected in fluid catalytic cracking main fractionator columns. Higher chloride concentrations in residue feedstocks can initiate ammonium salt fouling. Low main fractionator top temperatures of fluid catalytic cracking units ...

Trends in Water Resource Management

What's it about? Climate change, pollution, and population growth are all trends that will continue to put pressure on the world’s water resources. Nutrient pollution poses a major threat to our surface waters. Amongst other issues, it stimulates the growth of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs). Water quality degrades. Treatment processes get disrupted or even shut down. Additional costs must be ...
