68-04: Monitoring and Control of Industrial Air and Water Driveshafts

68-04: Monitoring and Control of Industrial Air and Water DriveshaftsAlthough this paper is only indirectly related to the subject of this symposium and is being delivered by a biologist with little knowledge of cooling towers, I believe it will be of some value to you to see an extensive and heavily instrumented monitoring program without the interference of much technical knowledge. The paper is a description of the development and routine use of waste monitoring equipment at the Texas division of the now chemical

Nowaday the concept of pollution is involving new aspects of our life and the target given to the industry are getting more and more stringent: noise is one of the most important aspects of the modern pollution

It would be interesting to determine why

Choosing the correct biocide program for your particular system requires assessing factors other than free chlorine levels and planktonic microbe counts

excessive amounts of cooling water loss requiring "make-up water" has become a larger issue

Within the past 20-years

Prevention and control guidelines for pitting corrosion in cooling water systems based upon real system experience are presented

and manufacturing errors

In wet-dry mode

This paper describes recent experiences with newer all-organic alkaline treatment programs

For both tests

This paper will discuss what the aftermath created for "Chemical Row Industries" with its raw water make-up source and how crawfish was determined to be a primary contributor
