Zero Blowdown Technology
Eliminate Chemicals and Save Water
with WCTI's Patented Technology
for Cooling Towers

  • Mitigates scale, corrosion and bio-fouling without blowdown or chemicals.
  • “New Dimension” cooling technology permits operation at high TDS / Zero Liquid Discharge
  • “State of Art” Corrosion & Scale Inhibition at 10-100,000 TDS tower water
  • Water use reduction and cost savings without acid, scale or corrosion risks
  • Six corrosion and scale inhibition patents (Patents US6929749; US6949193; US6998092; US7122148; US7517493; EP1704123)
  • It doesn't get any greener, this technology uses natural chemistry in the source water

How Zero Blowdown Technology Works
  • Proprietary pre-conditioning system removes scale forming ions from tower make-up
  • Permits unlimited makeup water concentrations (10-500 COC)
  • Silica concentrates without deposition (200 - 800 Mg/L soluble silica)
  • Silica chemistry protects metals from high TDS corrosion
  • High TDS and pH prohibits bio & pathogen growth
ZBT Benefits
  • Typically reduces total treatment cost by 50% or greater
  • Ideal corrosion protection (<0.2 MPY for steel, copper, galvanized steel, aluminum)
  • Non-toxic chemistry and / or eliminate discharge
  • No chemical handling & storage
  • Reduced testing and operator time
  • Ideal for high silica or reuse (wastewater) makeup waters
  • Eliminates “bleed & feed” water wastage and chemical costs
 
Application Experience
  • Six years of potable water application and evaluation
  • Three years using recycled water application
  • Customers include Industrial, Food, and Commercial/Institutional systems.
  • System metals tested include mild steel, copper, galvanized steel, aluminum, stainless.
  • Cooling towers include Marley, BAC, Evapco, Delta, others.
 
Program Implementation
  • Survey design capacity, load, water quality
  • Proposal / water savings comparison
  • Purchase & install pre-treat system
  • Monthly flat fee for method use and service
  • Pre-treat start-up and program transition
  • Performance monitoring & reporting
 
Pre-conditioning Systems
  • Proprietary design; salt use 4 lbs/ft3 resin
  • 30-50% lower salt use, 75% lower regeneration waste water
  • Polished quality with minimum hardness ion leakage
  • Dual units for continuous treated supply
  • Preventative maintenance program
  • Economical design & simple operation
