  1. Like to attach a comment about my Marine Pollution Bulletin paper by the "Science" journal, which give confidence about the subsurface intake/beach well technology that I prescribed for your problem in my previous message on 17th March 2021. It will motivate you to adopt this technology. By adopting this technology, you are also contributing to climate change and solving the twine problem of entrainment & impingement of marine/freshwater organisms in the cooling water intake systems. By avoiding impingement, the planktonic forms produce oxygen, contribute to our atmosphere, and enhance the capture fishery effortlessly as eggs and larvae of fishes are planktonic forms.

  2. Over my career in water treatment, many of these no chemical approaches have come and gone.  Every time I have been asked about a new one; my response is the same. "Have the vendor supply a pay if it works trial of 180 days." They need to write the objectives and what will be achieved and the benchmarks of success. There must be at least 2 measurable KPI's. If someone claims they have an answer, let them prove it without you footing 100% of the risk for their bold claims.

  4. The honest short answer is "No'.  Here is another way to view your question. If there were a way, all of the power plants, refineries, major chemical plants round the World would already be doing so. They use hundreds of millions of dollars on cooling water chemicals each year.  If all or any of these no chemical treatment methods were cost effective, those companies would be using it.

  5. Filtration and UV disinfections is the most affective way of dealing with this.  Please get in touch if you need more info and we can provide you with a complete solution. 

  6. You can go for Advanced oxidation Process with Ozone and UV, If you are reusing the water to Boiler feed, it is preferably to be treated completely rather than going for AOP. If the Scaling is not a problem you can reuse the water for 3 to 4 cycles with AOP treatment and get in a new batch of water

     

    We are also into Waste water treatments. if you require any further details you can contact me at confidentgokul@outlook.com 

  7. We have a cooling tower technology without chemicals working in USA for more than 10 years.
    For details please write to engar33@gmail.com

  8. Most respondents have addressed the issue of prevention of biofilm, however you also need to consider scaling. Rafael suggests side filtration which could help if you remove divalent and trivalent cations (i.e. calcium, magnesium, manganese, iron).  However it is normally more cost effective to use chemicals to improve solubility of these scale forming ions.

  9. Hi Asanka, please take a look at the solutions HPNow provides: https://www.hpnow.eu/industrial-water-treatment/

    Our systems generate hydrogen peroxide directly on site (so no need to transport or handle chemicals), which breaks down into water and oxygen. Do get in touch if you want to know more: https://www.hpnow.eu/contact/

  10. I think overall, the answer is no.

  11. We have done several projects in which we use UV disinfection which can easiliy inactivate legionella as well as reducing biofilm by inactivating bio film producing bacteria. For more info check our website www.vgepro.com or send an mail to ruudvandeven@vgebv.nl.

  12. I have a simple one time installation peoplesnrg@gmail.com 

  13. Well, I'm biased, but ozone is really good at killing things and reverts to oxygen...just sayin! :-)

    1. Ozone does blast bacteria to bits, but ozone become highly corrosive to metals in the system.

  16. With limited detail of your requirements I am anticipating a suitable solution.
