Given the quality of my water, can it be used directly to top up the circulating water?

This post was last edited by crjgood on 2011-8-4 07:20. Conductivity: 1000; pH: 7.9; total alkalinity: 580; hardness: 556; chloride ions: 63.9 mg/l; Fe: 0.27 mg/l. The company is planning to launch a new project and needs to build a cooling tower. This is the quality of my tap water – can it be used directly as make-up water for circulating water? Do you need to process it? The water has been treated in a valveless filter. It turns out that the water used for supplementation is in a 3:1 ratio of softened water to tap water; the softened water is produced through reverse osmosis. The manager said it’s a waste to use softened water, so he’s wondering if it would work to use tap water with chemicals added to it Could someone with experience give some advice?

It can be used; if you only use it for circulating water, that’s fine. Our company draws circulating water directly from the river, and after simple filtration, it’s ready for use

In this way, circulating water will accumulate scale in the plate-and-frame radiator, affecting its cooling efficiency

What if chemicals are added? ? Corrosion inhibitors, scale inhibitors, etc. – the water quality in Shandong is hard; those products can be used directly in the south

The total alkalinity is 580 and the hardness is 556. Is it 1/2 calcium carbonate or pure calcium carbonate? What is the concentration multiplication factor you have designed? What is the water retention level and how much water needs to be added? It is recommended to use lime treatment, flocculation, and filtration

It’s calcium carbonate; the circulation volume is 1200, and the water retention volume is also 1200. As for any additional water addition or concentration processes, it’s of course better to make them as cost-effective as possible. Building a new cooling tower – I don’t know much about it. . We used to supplement the softened water produced by reverse osmosis. Add more medication too. . Can I just add tap water directly? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

I also want to know if what’s supplied in the north is mainly tap water? ? ? Or other water?

It won’t work if it’s used for a long time; cleaning the heat exchanger is very troublesome!
