Ozone Use in Cooling Tower Water Treatment
The use of ozone in cooling tower treatment has received a vast amount of attention in recent years for the benefits it offers the industry.
Ozone Benefits for Cooling Towers
- Safe and easy to use
- Ozone decomposes organic waste
- Very effective in removing biofilms
- Environmentally friendly treatment
- Ozone is effective in a wide pH range
- Ozone requires no additional disinfectants
- Ozone is 3,000x more germicidal than chlorine
- Reduced permit costs for treated water discharge
- Very effective against due to good biofilm removal capacities
- Destroys all types of microorganisms instantly, including Legionella
- Low corrosion rates in the system, including copper heat exchangers, because there are no chlorinated compounds
- Disinfectant with a high-efficiency level (an ozone concentration of 0.1 to 0.2t ppm is, in most cases, very effective in keeping the cooling tower and the cooling circuit clean)
- Ozone does not leave any chemical residues. Ozone’s only byproduct is oxygen.
Operational Savings
Ozone treatment systems in cooling towers also allow for significant savings by:
- Reduced maintenance
- Reduced consumables
- Reduced water consumption
- Reduced anti-scaling and anti-corrosion agents
- Reduced energy consumption due to increased efficiency
- Remove the need for chemical shipping, storage, and handling
