Cooling Tower Fill Cleaning Chemical

In industrial circulating cooling systems, Cooling Tower Fill is the core component that affects cooling efficiency. As the running time increases, the surface of the packing is prone to the deposition of scale, biofouling, and corrosion products, which seriously affect the heat transfer performance of the system. Therefore, choosing the appropriate Cooling Tower Fill Cleaning Chemical is crucial for ensuring the long-term efficient operation of the cooling tower.

What is Cooling Tower Fill?

Fill for cooling tower is a heat transfer medium installed inside the cooling tower, mainly used to increase the contact area and contact time between water and air, thereby improving the efficiency of evaporation and heat dissipation. Common materials include PVC, PP, etc., which are widely used in industries such as power, chemical, metallurgy, HVAC, etc.

Cooling tower fill function：

1. Enhance heat exchange efficiency:

Maximizing the contact area between water and air by forming a water film or droplets

2. Reduce the temperature of the cooling water:

Accelerate the evaporation and heat dissipation process

3. Energy conservation and consumption reduction:

Improve cooling efficiency and reduce energy consumption of fans and water pumps

4. Stable system operation:

Maintain the overall stability of the cooling tower performance

Once the filling material is covered by scale or biological sludge, its cooling tower fill function will significantly decrease.

Pollution issue and cleaning necessity of Cooling Tower Fill

During long-term operation, Cooling Tower Fill is prone to the following issues:

1. Inorganic scale deposits such as calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate

2. Algae, bacteria, and slime growth

3. Adhesion of rust and corrosion products

These pollutants can block water flow channels, increase system resistance, and even cause abnormal operation of cooling tower fill valves, affecting water distribution uniformity.

The relationship between Cooling Tower Fill Valve and cleaning

The cooling tower fill valve is responsible for regulating and distributing the flow of cooling water. If both the packing and valve are affected by dirt, it can easily cause:

1.Uneven distribution of water

2.Cooling efficiency decreases

3.System energy consumption increases
