The results indicate the degree of wood deterioration
together with the limitations being imposed by EPA on the discharge of water treatment chemicals in the blowdown from cooling towers
The concentration of water treatment chemical was controlled by manually adjusting the delivery rate of a metering pump by timing the drawdown using a calibration cylinder valved into the pump suction
On-line chemical analysis is not needed
Dolphin "pulsed power" water treatment was found to perform as well or better than chemical treatment when judged by the appearance of the chiller and tower fill
