Cooling Tower Water Treatment System

Industrial companies using cooling towers for their facilities usually need some type of cooling tower water treatment system to ensure an efficient process and long equipment service life. If cooling tower water is left untreated, organic growth, fouling, scaling, and corrosion can reduce plant productivity, cause plant downtime, and require costly equipment replacements down the road.

What is a cooling tower water treatment system?

A cooling tower water treatment system is an arrangement of technologies that remove damaging impurities from your cooling tower feed water, circulation water, and/or blowdown.

In general, a basic cooling tower water treatment system typically includes some types of:

✭ clarification

✭ filtration and/or ultrafiltration

✭ ion exchange/softening

✭ chemical feed

✭ automated monitoring

Filtration and Ultrafiltration

The Filtration and Ultrafiltration are the most crucial steps in the water treatment process, both of which help remove suspended particles from the water. These particles can include turbidity, sediment, and other organic matter. This step of the water treatment process should occur early on to protect the resins and membranes in the system from fouling later on. If you choose ultrafiltration, it's possible to remove enough suspended particles to reach less than one micron of particles.

The best suits for filters are self-cleaning filter housings and wedge wire screen strainer in the step.

Water Softening/Ion Exchange

If you find that your makeup water or source water has a high level of hardness, you may need to use ion exchange or water softening processes to remove it. 

The best ion exchange filter strainer is the Wedge Wire Resin Trap.

How to Check if a Cooling Tower Water Treatment is Needed for Your Plant?

To ensure efficient cooling and prevent damage, it's highly recommended to use a water treatment system in your cooling tower. When the water in a cooling tower isn’t treated, the problems that can result include corrosion and the development of scaling. Over time, the accumulation of these issues can result in decreased productivity, increased downtime for the plant, and high replacement costs for damaged equipment, which you should strive to avoid.

Cooling towers require water treatment to ensure a safe, reliable, and efficient system.
