The problem
Dissolved salts in intake water end up concentrated in every recirculating loop on site, driving scale, corrosion and blowdown wherever they go.
Benefits
- Less scale and corrosion across the whole works
- Higher cycles of concentration in every loop
- Less fresh water drawn in
- Lower risk of fouling-driven failures, both safety and financial
Application
Conditions water at the primary intake, before it is distributed across the site.
