05-15: Finally, an Alternative to AzolesIntroducing a new breed of yellow metal corrosion inhibitor that will revolutionize the way cooling towers are treated. This new inhibitor forms a protective film on the metal surface hat is unequaled in its resistance to breakdown. The film is so durable that it is capable of maintaining corrosion protection for weeks without the presence of residual inhibitor in solution (a feat that azoles are incapable of achieving). This paper will present

Portions of the paper will deal with Personal Protection Equipment

Yet this is what is taking place today for a variety of reasons

The instruments tested varied widely in their capabilities

when there is virtually no calcium but ample alkalinity present

Fouling or deposition

The ubiquity of the LDB in both ambient control and cooling tower water was demonstrated

In-line and back-to-back counter-flow configurations makeup the bulk of new cooling tower installations

February 1985

Enhancement opportunities for cooling water systems can be placed into three major categories

completed by the icing of a wire grid at the bottom of the air inlet

along with actual application data collected in a highly stressed power plant cooling system

specialist contractors are finding the equipment invaluable
