IONIZATION OF COOLING TOWER WATER

Ionization of cooling tower water will eliminate algae, bacteria, and viruses that cause serious health and maintenance problems. Ionization is produced through a process where copper ions are emitted into the water by an electrical current polarizing opposing copper alloy electrodes. The copper alloy ions created by the electrodes kill algae, bacteria, and viruses which are then removed from the water by the filter. The copper alloy ions also strip the bonding properties of the existing scale adhered to the pipes and components, reducing the scale to fine particles as it softens and are then removed by an automated filtering system.

Oxidation is a process that conditions the water by polarizing the minerals in the water which lowers their surface tension so they stay in solution rather than affixing themselves to the various elements of the cooling tower. Mineral molecules normally bond to one another and cling to surfaces forming scale. Existing scale will flake off after the oxidation process is implemented, loosening the attached minerals and releasing them into the flow where they are continuously filtered out of the water.

The System's electronic ionization and oxidation components will continuously eliminate any algae or bacteria that develops in the water. It will further break down the existing scale and prevent any new scaling from forming. The filtering component of the System removes all solid particulates filtered from the treated water through its automated backwash cycles.
