02-09: A Temporary Cooling Tower CAN Work For You Cooling Tower Water Blowdown TreatmentTemporary cooling towers allow for a contingency plan of the heart of the plant that will save time and money in the event of an unexpected loss. They provide increased worker safety during reconstruction as well as protecting the environment and "keeping the lights on" at the power plant. The plant can "try before you buy" to provide undisputable evidence of the impact of cooler water. Add to all of this the ability to maintain full production during

there soon came a rude awakening to the uninitiated that problems of tower maintenance and biocidal control were ever present

procedures for conducting the tests

The question regarding what can be done to a cooling tower to decrease the sump temperature to improve plant performance is reviewed

In addition

and other small components for use in standard properties

including engineering

these systems have been costly

These ranged from visual to in situ tests using various techniques for different materials

corrosion data

and the cost of justification

This paper discusses how high-level halogen applications should be managed to provide optimal polymer control

Numerous technical and economic advantages would occur if such predictive data were available
