Hybrid
Reduce blowdown by 40% and LIMIT chemical feed
The Hybrid program combines a patented physical water conditioner with limited solid chemicals to solve for scale, corrosion, and bacteria, providing world-class results and saving up to 70% of water blowdown.
Physical Water Conditioner on the external of the condenser pipe
Installation of Physical Water Conditioner
The physical water conditioner acts as a primary transformer, with the water passing through the pipe being the secondary transformer
How it works
- Acting like a transformer, an electromagnetic field is induced into the condenser water, limiting scale formation. This results in increased cycle limits, less water consumption, and eliminates the need for scale inhibition chemicals.
- The field directs current flow in a manner that prevents corrosion and eliminates the need for corrosion inhibition chemicals.
- Electroporation kills bacteria in the water and coupled with a solid biocide feeder, less biocides need to be fed to control bacteria growth.
Benefits
- Up to 40% reduction in cooling water consumption
- Eliminates the need for scale and corrosion inhibitors
- Significantly decreases the need for biocides
- Removes existing scale, resulting in energy efficiency gains
- Reduced risk of environmental release and human exposure
- Simplifies water treatment program and equipment
Positively and Negatively charged hardness ions attract to each other, not equipment
A 0 volt per meter electric field on the pipe surface stops ion transfer, preventing corrosion
Osmotic pressure forces water into the bacteria cell, causing it to burst
Key Benefits versus Traditional Water Treatment
Increased cycles of concentration
Inducing pulsed electromagnetic waves into the condenser water alters the hardness ions in the water, preventing scale buildup and corrosion, as well as reduce bio growth. Less limiting factors = higher cycles
Significant water savings
Utilizing a higher cycle program means less water consumed and wasted
World class scale, corrosion, and bacteria control
By combining physical water conditioners, solid chemistry, and wireless monitoring, you achieve excellent scale, corrosion, and bacteria control
Limited chemical use
With reduced scale, corrosion, and bacteria, the need for chemicals is dramatically reduced
Electricity savings
Significant reduction in scale results in meaningful heat transfer energy efficiencies
Safety
Limits environmental and human exposure through reduced chemical use and the elimination of concentrated hazardous liquid chemistry and feed equipment
