Dynamic Water Technologies (DWT) has changed the world of process water treatment with their internationally patented and patent pending technologies that utilize controlled electrolysis instead of chemicals to manage scaling, corrosion, and bio-contamination. The system speeds the process of scaling within the controlled environment of reactor chambers on a basin side loop. Scale Control The DC process creates a controlled, partial electrolysis in the water. This process precipitates unstable, scale-forming minerals inside the reactors instead of on heat transfer surfaces. Corrosion Control The electrolysis process generates a pH gradient within the reactor providing an alkaline, non-corrosive pH at the perimeter of the reaction chamber, allowing the process water to average between 8.5 – 8.9 pH, well within the non-corrosive range. Elimination of Hazardous Chemicals Electrochemical treatment can eliminate the need for chemicals. Most of the chemicals used in process water treatment are hazardous and/or toxic. They pose serious risk for spills and injury. Even small spills require immediate attention to mitigate. How Electrochemical Technology Works The technology uses a carefully controlled electrolysis process to split water into H+ and OH-ions inside the reactor. Thehigh concentration of OH- ions at the cathode lowers thepH and leads to a high concentration of CO3- (bicarbonate ions), which accelerates the precipitation of the hard minerals inside the reactor chambers instead of on cooling tower and chiller surfaces and in the heat exchanger tubes. The system also maintains equilibrium between the pH and alkalinity to minimize corrosion. The system activates the chlorides naturally present in the water, creating chlorine, which acts as a biocide. The result is a significant increase in the cycles of concentration and minimizes blowdown, thereby saving water. The control of the scale results in cleaner heat transfer surfaces and reduced energy consumption. Cleaner water also creates a more reliable system that will provide for an extension of useful equipment life.
