83-02: Cooling Tower Hardware Corrosion StudiesA program is being conducted to identify alternate materials for maintenance of a system of cooling towers. Samples of fasteners and weldments of corrosion resistant metals and sheets for plastics have been placed in different zones of cooling tower and tested in the laboratory after several years of exposure.

and is starting to rival internal fungus attack as a causative factor

contaminants in the waste streams frequently present new and significant challenges in corrosion control

important for high-density urban environments

EEKO BALL Requires no maintenance

This yields continued improvements for the tower operator

large areas of concrete will need to be removed from the structures

This paper will discuss the approach and results used in this cooling tower application

Drift eliminators are commonly incorporated in wet cooling towers to reduce the amount of water droplet losses

This paper discusses two power plants which both have a long history of fouling problems using film fill despite various biocide treatment programs

Research Cottrell constructed the concrete induced draft-cooling tower at Cross Generating Station in 1984

as well as its ability to react with and remove attached biofilms
