Update on Pathex Side Stream Filtration

2/7/2020

0 Comments

 
In the summer of 2018, AS Filtration installed a large 3-vessel filtration unit to treat the cooling water for eight cooling towers. The cooling system is used for climate control of 1-million sq-ft. of office spaces and critical systems, including an on-site data center.

When filtration with with Pathex began, bacteria levels were high. Bacteria counts were approaching 19,000 spc/mL, despite a professional chemical treatment plan. Using Pathex, waterborne bacteria levels were reduced by 90% within 2 weeks, and more than 99% in the next 8 weeks. Similarly, TSS was reduced to undetectable levels within 6 weeks of implementing Pathex.

More than 18 months after installation, Pathex is maintaining extremely low bacteria and TSS levels and maximizing the operating efficiency of the cooling system. One employee said that the water in the cooling tower basins was so clear, he thought they were empty!
