Maximizing MW Output through the Latest in Biofilm Control in Cooling System

Efficient and effective cooling is a top concern for power plant and other operators of large cooling systems. One of the biggest factors impacting cooling processes in microbiological growth (biofilm). Biofilm has a 10X the insulating effect vs scale and can cause power plants to lose millions of dollars due to lost MW output. Biofilm can also be a leading cause of under deposit corrosion and may lead to favorable conditions that harbor dangerous bacteria like Legionella.
