Condenser Biofouling Control, Symposium Proceedings

Conference ·
OSTI ID:835882
Biofouling on the water side of operating condensers decreases their heat transfer efficiency and, as a result, overall plant efficiency. In the past, chlorine has been used to control biofouling, but increasing federal regulation of chlorine discharge poses difficult questions regarding its use. EPRI sponsored a symposium in Atlanta in March 1979 to examine biofouling control; this hardbound volume reproduces most of the papers presented there. They discuss the nature and cost of the problem, biofouling measurement, and control options.
