DISADVANTAGES
- Poor Quality of Water to Process
- Permanent Contamination
- Solids, Gases, Algae
- High risk of Bacterial contamination (i.e. Legionella)
- Scale Accumulation
- Permanent Oxidation
- Reduced Heat Transfer Efficiency and Performance due to Fouling and scaling
- Winter Icing
COSTS
- Continuous Water Consumption
- Increasing Costs for Water
- Ongoing Water Treatment and
Chemical Consumption & Disposal
- Increasingly Stricter Laws and Regulations
- Periodic Heat Exchanger Maintenance
- High risk of damages due to corrosion, oxidation and frequent mechanical scale removal
High Environmental Impact |
