Air-conditioning systems in commercial
buildings |
| |
Central air-conditioning units in buildings and facilities
which make use of water-cooled heat exchangers in order to keep
their heat transfer coefficient at peak efficiency. |
| 2. |
Shipping applications |
| |
Ships commonly use seawater for cooling. result in heat exchanger
fouling and scaling.

Power stations |
| |
The heat transfer efficiency of the condensers of steam turbines
has a direct impact on energy generation. Thus, condenser tubes
that are affected by fouling and scaling will contribute to
loss of power output. The system can be installed in both new
and existing power plants in order to maintain their energy
output efficiency.

Refineries/Industrial Processes |
| |
Refineries/industrial processes use various heat transfer
processes which require regular cleaning. In such processes,
chemical deposits on heat transfer surfaces gradually decrease
heat transfer coefficients. If this is not mitigated or addressed,
product quality and throughput goals will be negatively impacted.

Desalination plants |
| |
In the case of seawater desalination plants, the l system
can be installed to control biological micro-fouling and prevent
sedimentation on the inner surface of tubes and pipes. Circulating
sponge balls through the tubular heat exchangers and piping
systems of such facilities will also help mitigate the impact
of highly corrosive brine. |
