Water Treatment for Unique System Requirements

We have a complete series of advanced chemical solutions for every stage of your industrial water operation. From the intake of raw water or pretreatment for utility makeup to wastewater disposal, ChemTreat can provide a chemical treatment program customized for your unique system requirements.

ChemTreat truly excels when it comes to the application of chemical solutions and technologies. Water treatment is a science, but the optimal diagnosis and selection of a treatment program can be an art. It takes years of field experience to learn how to evaluate a water system and determine its potential to corrode, scale, or foul the various heat transfer surfaces.

A water treatment chemical program needs to be customized and applied with the utmost care. We can monitor the water quality in your systems regularly and make prompt recommendations for adjustments when needed.

Chemical Water Treatment for Cooling Systems

ChemTreat takes the time to understand your exact needs before recommending a chemical treatment program for industrial cooling systems. A full system audit, which includes operational history and inefficiencies, allows your field representative to determine your system’s corrosion, fouling, and scaling potential.

Optimize Cooling System Efficiency

Our chemical programs can be effectively used for the reduction and prevention of the three major issues your industrial cooling water system may encounter: corrosion, deposition, and microbial growth.

Corrosion leads to metal loss that can result in critical system failures in heat exchangers, recirculating water piping, and process cooling equipment. Corrosion also results in efficiency loss as corrosion products precipitate on heat transfer devices, insulating the metals.

Cooling towers are vulnerable to a variety of contaminants that cause deposit formation, such as mineral scales and sludge. Deposition interferes with heat transfer, increases corrosion rates, restricts water flow, and causes process efficiency and production loss.

Reduce and prevent corrosion, deposition, and microbial growth

Biological organisms, including algae, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi, often find their breeding grounds in cooling towers. If not properly controlled, biological growth forms and acts as a natural adhesion surface for scale formation, resulting in fouling.

These conditions can be seriously problematic when it comes to optimizing the efficiency of your cooling water tower or system. ChemTreat’s full range of cooling water chemicals can provide excellent protection against these challenges:

ChemTreat’s product lines control deposition and fouling and consist of two major classes of dispersants. Polymers prevent or reverse the growth of mineral deposits, while surfactants, or surface-active agents, render particles less adherent and more easily dispersed.

Maximize Boiler Efficiency and Reliability

Both corrosion and deposition can be seriously problematic when it comes to the function of your boiler system. The formation of deposits such as scale and sludge in a boiler system results in elevated metal temperatures, causing tube failures and restricted circulation.

Boiler system corrosion leads to localized pitting and/or thinning of pipe and tube surfaces, resulting in leaks and tube failures. Both issues will significantly reduce a system’s efficiency and compromise a boiler’s reliability. ChemTreat’s boiler chemicals can take care of these issues when properly applied by one of our local field representatives.

ChemTreat’s boiler system chemicals handle problems in four main areas:

ChemTreat can help inhibit corrosion in your system with oxygen scavengers and dealkalizers for feedwater and boiler internals, and neutralizing amines and specialty filming amines for condensate return systems.

Deposit control chemicals designed to control scale and sludge formation on heat transfer surfaces include phosphate treatments, chelants, polymeric conditioners and dispersants, and alkalinity builders.

TITAN360™ is an all-in-one mixture of neutralizing amines, an organic corrosion inhibitor, and a dispersant, effectively treating the water-steam cycle without multiple chemical feed points.

ChemTreat offers fuel conditioner products that primarily consist of organometallic formulations and help address problems associated with pre-combustion, combustion, and post-combustion.
