Abstract
The ability to dissipate unwanted heat through cooling systems is vital to operation of power generating stations and most industrial or commercial installations. Open recirculating towers and closed cooling systems are assuming a steadily increasing proportion of utility and industrial cooling loads, as water shortages continue to limit availability of once-through cooling water sources. Cooling water treatment programs all have similar objectives: 1) to maintain heat transfer efficiency. 2) To preserve operating efficiency of the overall system. 3) To prolong service life of equipment. Protection of cooling system metals involves complex interrelated problems of scale and deposit prevention, control of microbiological growths and other fouling sources, in addition to corrosion mitigation by inhibitors. Corrosion control programs may be expected to vary considerably between systems, since each installation presents different environmental factors and operating problems which affect response. Those of us who own or drive automobiles recognize the need for cooling
