The cooling water in a food processing facility in Illinois was treated with a traditional scale/corrosion inhibiting blend along with an oxidizing biocide, a non-oxidizing biocide, a bio-dispersant, and a defoamer. There was heavy contamination of the cooling water from the process systems which was leading to extreme organic contamination and foaming (see Figure 1).

THE PROBLEMS
The Zambarano Hospital replaced their window air conditioners with a central cooling plant with a cooling tower and absorption chiller. They wanted to provide first class water treatment without polluting the water with hazardous chemicals since the cooling system is adjacent to the lake that supplies water to the hospital.

Creative Water Solutions is currently in beta testing with water treatment for animal husbandry in the hog and dairy cow segments of the market. Since the federal government outlawed prophylactic administration of antibiotics for farm animals, water quality and purity has become a critical issue in animal health.
We are finishing a six-month beta test on a sow facility outside Morris, MN. We did a water analysis of the needs of the sow barn and designed a system to deliver adequate amounts of ProMoss™ treated water to satisfy the needs of the sows and the maintenance of the facility.

Legionella pneumonia was in the news again last week due to cases traced to Disneyland® cooling towers in Southern California. Of the 12 reported cases as of this writing, one patient has died. After the New York City outbreak in the Bronx in 2015, strict testing and reporting standards were instituted statewide. All towers are tested quarterly with water samples sent to a state certified testing facility. Any result that records greater than 20 CFU/mL but less than 1000 CFU requires online disinfection and retest in 3-7 days. When less than 20 CFU/mL is reached, routine maintenance continues. Greater than 1000 CFU requires state notification, online decontamination and retest. If any retest continues to be greater than 1000 CFU/mL, the cooling tower must be drained, decontaminated, and retested until it is below 1000 CFU/ml.
