Problem: A customer of Operators Unlimited in the aerospace, building technology and performance materials industries faced challenges with system efficiency and wastewater regulation compliance in a newly upgraded facility. The upgrade added two cooling towers. The customer needed chemical treatment to accommodate increased capacity and optimize chemical usage while optimizing efficiency, cost-effectiveness and microbiological control.
Solution: Operators Unlimited prescribed a microbiological control chemical treatment plan to optimize cooling tower operation. The plan alternates oxidizing and a non-oxidizing biocide, providing greater microbiological control than common oxidizing treatment products alone, while maintaining industry standards for biological protection. Removal of the microbiological impurities limits damage they could cause to the cooling tower system.
Result: The plan helped the facility comply with permit requirements while tailoring chemical treatment to the application. 864-228-1131; www.operatorsunlimited.net
