72-08: New Advances in Organic Cooling Water Programs Dry CoolingConsiderable attention has been given to the prevention of corrosion and deposit formation in cooling water systems. This paper discusses the effect of elevated water temperatures in these systems and improved methods of treatment. Several case histories illustrate the successful application of these methods.

An important distinction between drift and the normally visible condensing plume is that the drift contains the same chemicals and solids present in the circulating water

and formation of horrendous amounts of foam until it was found that these troubles could be minimized by pre-treatment with lime

which of course is the primary material in many condenser tubes

highly variable make-up water chemistry
