During a recent prefeasibility study for applying the effluent geothermal water from the Power Plant at Kizildere for district heating purposes, the chemistry of the water was checked and the scaling properties noted. This paper deals with the results of chemical testing and the nature of scaling observed by tests in a local heating system at Kizildere. Furthermore, a pilot plant operation is proposed, which would evaluate the potential scaling made in the proposed district heating system for the city of Denizli, and test scaling remedies including the use of chemical additives.
