Predicting calcium carbonate scale in water systems has been done for more than 20 years — often with questionable or even inaccurate results rather than actual field observations.

Duratherm MAX line of water systems handle temperatures up to 380°F (193°C) and system pressures up to 300 psi (20.7 bar).

As water resources become increasingly stressed by drought and intensifying demand from competing uses, industries that use significant quantities of water will face greater pressure to adopt water-efficiency strategies that can decrease fresh-water withdrawals.

The proliferation of microorganisms (bacteria, fungi and algae) presents a significant challenge in the maintenance and operation of process cooling water systems.

Line of temperature control units has a higher maximum water temperature than previous models from the company. 

In injection-molding and extrusion processes, water or air cooling is used to regulate the temperature of the molding process and remove excess heat cause by shear. A simple, closed-loop temperature control system typically involves the input of heat, a sensor and a controller.

Many industrial processes utilize a process fluid to cool the equipment by moving heat away from the operation. An industrial chiller is a type of equipment used to accomplish this. The cooling system is designed to remove heat from the process fluid, transfer the heat to another medium such as ambient air or water, and return cool fluid to the process to begin the cycle again.

York YK-EP utilizes a patent-pending mechanical compression economizer cycle to boost performance over conventional chiller platforms.

Cooling towers from Tower Tech Inc., Oklahoma City, will incorporate AccuShield antimicrobial products by Brentwood Industries as part of an overall cooling tower solution for combating the spread of Legionella bacteria.
