AI Technical Summary
Existing water management systems for cooling and recirculating water face challenges such as scale, corrosion, algae, bacteria, biofilm, and sludge formation, requiring chemical treatments that are environmentally problematic and labor-intensive, with limited continuous corrosion monitoring.
A system comprising a centrifugal separator, germicide generator, and magnetic field generator, along with continuous real-time corrosion monitoring, uses physics to eliminate chemicals and labor, preventing sludge accumulation, destroying bacteria and algae, and inhibiting corrosion, while monitoring corrosion in real time.
Achieves up to 40% energy savings, eliminates chemical costs and labor, extends equipment life, and prevents environmental pollution, with improved heat exchanger efficiency and continuous corrosion reporting.
