Heat exchangers come in a variety of shapes and sizes: shell and tube, plate and frame, fluid coolers, and evaporative condensers. Cooling towers are used to remove heat, but still require a heat exchanger for transfer to the cooling water. The kind of system used will depend on the application, the operating environment and the designer's bias.

Each system presents its own heat-transfer or maintenance challenges. Scale formation, biofilm, suspended solids and corrosion products may all impede heat transfer. Variables like the water supply, operating temperatures, proneness to foul, and materials of construction are important when setting up a treatment program.

We provide the knowledge and expertise to address each of these factors, while safely and effectively overseeing the entire program.
