Cooling Towers - Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) Generators from SafeOx

Cooling Towers - Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Cooling Towers - The use of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) in cooling towers, loops and cooling systems greatly assists in the control of algae, planktonic bacteria, biofilm and scale, helping to maintain the efficiency of heat exchanger surfaces, reservoir intakes, and ancillary equipment.

Traditional oxidising agents such as chlorine and bromine suffer from pH constraints and corrosion problems. CIO2 is significantly more stable than other oxidising biocides and is also compatible with most water treatment chemistry.

Each SafeOx generator system produces CIO2 that controls algae, planktonic and sessile bacteria, and biofilm.

Why is it important to control biofilm in such systems?

Biofilm acts as an insulator causing deterioration in general heat transfer properties. It creates fouling and corrosion problems by accumulating scale in pipework and equipment. Biofilm also creates an environment that promotes the growth of anaerobic microorganisms which inturn increases microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC) problems.

Using a SafeOx system to generate CIO2 will lead to significant cost savings including:

1. Savings on water costs with reduced water consumption.

2. Minimal salt build up; reducing potential corrosion problems.

3. Reduced maintenance costs with longer operating cycles between "blow downs".

4. Improved system performance with reduced accumulated scale on heat transfer surface components.

SafeOx CIO2 Generators

SafeOx CIO2 units are manufactured to the highest quality standards and represent one of the safest, most reliable and cost effective ways of generating CIO2 at the point of use. They are suitable for a range of applications including, healthcare and hospital facilities, food and beverage processing, ultrapure water treatment, legionella control, water hygiene, potable water treatment, waste-water treatment, residential, commercial and industrial facilities.
