Ozone in Cooling Tower

Benefits

• Prevents formation of Bio-films

• Prevents corrosion

• Prevents scaling in pipes & heat exchangers

• Destroys all type of micro organism

• No need of harmful chemicals

Ozone is an extremely powerful oxidizing and disinfecting agent. It is advantageous to use ozone as a biocide to destroy the micro-organisms including algae in the cooling tower. Ozone also destroys the biofilm formed in the heat exchanger surfaces. Since biofilm is also responsible for scaling, destroying it helps in the control of scaling, which in turn help in reducing the corrosion rate. The use of ozone also reduces the requirement of scale and corrosion inhibitor chemicals improving the quality of the blow down water.

Advantages

• Ozone is produced on-site and requires no storage of dangerous chemicals

• Ozone requires no additional disinfection

• Increases the pumping efficiency

• Higher efficiency of heat exchangers

• Cooler running temperatures where scale is inhibited or reduced

• Ozone is effective in a wide pH range

• Reduction or elimination chemicals needed for algae control

• No persistent chemical or disinfectants in bleed
