Process Cooling Water Filtration: Preventing System Fouling

Process Cooling Water Filtration: Preventing System Fouling

The Challenge

Industrial cooling systems face constant challenges from suspended solids, biological growth, and scale formation. These contaminants reduce heat transfer efficiency, increase energy costs, and can lead to system failures.

The Solution: Continuous Water Treatment

Filter bags provide continuous removal of suspended particles, preventing accumulation in cooling towers, heat exchangers, and distribution systems. Regular filtration maintains system efficiency and extends equipment life.

Recommended Filter Selection:

  • Standard Cooling: Polypropylene felt (50-200 micron)
  • High-Temperature Systems: Polyester felt (25-100 micron)
  • Chemical Compatibility: PTFE felt for aggressive cooling fluids

Key Benefits

  • Maintains heat transfer efficiency
  • Reduces chemical treatment requirements
  • Prevents costly scale buildup
  • Compatible with existing cooling water systems

System Integration

Most cooling applications benefit from Size 2 bags in single or multi-bag housings. Consider duplex systems for continuous operation during bag changes.
