Results at a Glance This case study examines how Apex helped a manufacturing facility reduce municipal water consumption by reusing deionized (DI) system reject water as cooling tower make-up. By implementing a controlled blending strategy and optimizing cooling water...
Case Study SummaryIn industrial manufacturing, maintaining peak heat exchanger performance is critical to ensuring process reliability, energy efficiency, and consistent product quality. Over time, fouling, scaling, oil carryover, and process residues can...
Case Study SummaryThis case study examines how Apex reduced microbial fouling and operating costs in a manufacturing chilled water system by implementing automated biocontrol, enhanced filtration, and real-time monitoring. The program eliminated unplanned downtime,...
Author Bruce Ketrick, Sr CWTThe boiler condensate return line system is the system where the selection of a program can easily result in failure. When failure occurs in the return line system, it carries over into the feed water and the boiler water system, as...
AuthorMadison AuneProper maintenance of equipment and systems during periods of inactivity is crucial to prevent damage and corrosion. By treating the system during a layup, you can prevent corrosion, avoid biofilm formation, and extend the lifespan of the equipment....
AuthorMike Bertrang – VP of SalesClosed industrial water systems are essential in various industrial applications where water is used for cooling, heating, or processing. Unlike open-loop systems, where water is continuously replenished from external sources,...
AuthorMatt LaBrosse, Ph.D.Copper and copper alloys are critical to industrial heat transfer processes due to their excellent heat transfer properties (e.g., thermal conductivity). It is often more noble and resistant to corrosion than other metals, but it still...
AuthorMike Bertrang – VP of SalesIndustrial glycol loops are commonly used in systems where cooling or freezing is needed, such as in HVAC, refrigeration, and industrial processes. These systems typically use a mixture of water and glycol to transfer heat or maintain...
