Maintaining proper water quality is essential to keep operations running smoothly in industrial processes that use water for various applications, such as cooling, heating, and generating steam. Water hardness, caused by mineral deposits like limestone, calcite, and dolomite, can lead to equipment damage and energy inefficiency. Hard water can cause equipment failure and reduce the lifespan of expensive machinery. Mineral buildup can also obstruct pipelines and valves, reducing water flow and slowing down processes.

Many industrial operations utilize biocides to combat these issues. For instance, cooling tower biocide, which is comprised of harsh chemicals, is widely used in applications that utilize cooling towers. Our next series of articles will discuss industrial hard water descaling as a revolutionary solution for industrial-scale water treatment. We will investigate the benefits of using an industrial hard water descaler for removing limescale and mineral buildup and the key considerations and best practices for implementing an industrial hard water descaling system into your operation to ensure long-term benefits and cost savings.

Hard Water is a Common Concern

Hard water is a common problem in many industrial operations, especially in areas with high mineral content in the water source. The hardness is caused by minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and iron which can accumulate and create limescale and other mineral deposits in pipes, boilers, and equipment. This is where an industrial hard water descaler can help. An industrial hard water descaling system is a limescale eliminator that prevents new scale from forming. This is important because mineral deposits can cause a wide range of problems. Limescale inside a boiler, for example, can reduce heat transfer, making the boiler less efficient, and increasing energy consumption. Mineral accumulation in cooling systems can lead to corrosion, microbial growth, and reduced water flow. These issues often lead to equipment failure, downtime, and costly repairs.

Our next article will continue discussing some of the problems caused by hard water and benefits of implementing an industrial hard water descaling system.

The first step to reducing the risks associated with cooling tower biocide is to understand what biocides are and how they work. Biocides are chemicals that are used to kill or control living organisms. While biocides are effective at killing or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms, they can be harmful to humans if they are not used properly. When using a cooling tower biocide, it is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully to avoid potential health hazards.

Here are some known risks involving various types of chemicals associated with cooling tower biocide:

Chlorine-Based Disinfectants

Skin irritation, respiratory distress, and chemical burns

Chlorine dioxide

Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea if ingested

Hydrogen Peroxide

Skin irritation and stomach upset if ingested

Quaternary Ammonium Compounds

Skin irritation and allergic reactions in some people

Copper Sulfate Pentahydrate

Stomach upset if ingested in large quantities

Silver Nitrate

Skin irritation and stomach upset if ingested in large quantities

Glutaraldehyde

Skin irritation, respiratory distress, headaches, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting

The dangers of cooling tower biocide is real and should not be ignored. One way to reduce the risks associated with cooling tower biocide is to implement an industrial hard water descaler into your system. An electronic water descaler is easy to install and once installed, water scale removal begins. Not only does an electronic water descaler prevent new scale from forming, but it also reduces the corrosive properties of the water, which, in turn, controls bacteria and algae. Best of all, an industrial hard water descaler reduces maintenance costs and helps preserve the integrity of cooling tower equipment.

Cooling Tower Limescale Removal Options

Cooling tower limescale removal can be quite a challenge. Limescale causes a plethora of problems, wreaking havoc on the entire cooling tower system. Today, we will explore two of the most popular cooling tower limescale removal options to consider.

Cooling Tower Biocide

Biocides are chemical substances used to kill or control living organisms. They are effective on limescale, bacteria, algae, and corrosion. Many are harmful to humans if inhaled, spilled, or if they come in contact with the eyes or skin. They can also slowly degrade pumps and other vital equipment, causing the need to replace them more frequently. Cooling tower biocide can either be oxidizing or non-oxidizing. Oxidizing cooling tower biocide kills microorganisms; non-oxidizing prevents growth.

Electronic Descaling System

An electronic descaling system is an effective method of industrial hard water descaling because not only is it effective at water scale removal, but it also prevents new scale from forming. Additionally, an electronic descaling system controls algae and bacteria by reducing the corrosive properties of the water. This type of industrial hard water descaling system utilizes no chemicals, reduces maintenance costs, preserves the life of equipment, and is environmentally safe.
