The Dilemma
Are your operations at risk of……®
Corrosion
Rust or Iron oxide is often found in steel or iron pipe work, or system with iron components. This leads to poor water quality, high maintenance costs, or premature failure of equipment.
Lime scale
In a dissolved form, lime scale and corrosion as well as other salts can be found in almost any water. Calcite, is the main cause of scale and is the most common form of calcium carbonate which occurs naturally as an ingredient of Chalk, Limestone and Marble
For every 6 mm of lime scale build up, 40% more energy is used.
Algae Bacteria and Marine Growth
Algae can be found in open systems, such as cooling towers, fountains or ponds, and it will proliferate primarily in warmer surroundings.Marine growth can cause major problems in pipework
Legionella
Water suppliers provide water, free of micro biological contamination, however press reports indicate that Legionella is being identified and organizations are at risk of contamination.
