Electronics Company Saves $60,000 Annually with Kurita鈥檚 Cetamine庐 E Series for Closed Loops

An electronics company in the United States was facing high aluminum corrosion rates and treatment costs in their process cooling water systems due to the previous water treatment program. The previous program resulted in high conductivity and high pH, which no longer met the specifications of 50 microsiemens (µS) and a pH of 6.5 to 7.5. Low conductivity is required for process cooling water tooling [...]

Increasing Heat Transfer Efficiency While Meeting Sustainability Goals: Dropwise Technology

Inefficient heat transfer causes unnecessary energy use, fuel consumption, and release of CO2 emissions. According to the United States Department of Energy , an estimated 60% of steam in the United States is used inefficiently. Businesses need to meet their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability goals while still having a positive impact on their financial bottom line. Dropwise is the [...]

A Shared Value Approach: Businesses and Their Communities Benefit

According to the Nature Conservancy , corporations use approximately 65% of a community's water resource. Water enables them to grow and produce a myriad of products we use for everyday life. In some communities, this can create both a political and economic strain. Water can be rationed or costs increase due to corporate use, yet in the same community, the corporation provides jobs and tax revenue. The [...]

Utilizing Calcite or Limestone Contactors for Remineralization Downstream from Membrane Treatment

Membrane treatment for total dissolved solids (TDS), like reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF), incidentally lowers hardness and alkalinity in the process. Without further treatment, membrane permeate can be extremely corrosive to downstream environments. Remineralization, the addition of hardness and alkalinity back into the water, prior to distribution can be a successful means of reducing this corrosion [...]

What is its strategy? A suite of [...]

The Importance of Keeping Your Cooling Towers Clean

Published September 2021, revised July 2024 Dirty and fouled cooling tower water often plagues maintenance teams that manage industrial cooling tower operation. A dirty cooling tower can have a detrimental effect on the overall health of the plant’s water infrastructure, leading to lower efficiencies and increased costs. Cooling water full of fine sand, grit, and biological matter can contribute to damage [...]

Sustainable Membrane Treatment Solutions for Optimal System Performance

Across the globe, there has been a decrease in water quality, whether it be through water scarcity or water abundance and local regulations. Water must meet a certain quality before being used in many processes and utility water. Purifying water and meeting quality before a process usually involves some sort of pre-treatment -- such as reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, microfiltration (MF) or ultrafiltration [...]

Biofuels Plant Sees Return on Investment After 100 Days with pHytOUT庐 Deposit Control Technology

A United States Midwest dry grind fuel ethanol plant requested 精东影业 to assist and implement production efficiency improvements within their plant. After an in-depth performance evaluation, the 精东影业 Process Technologies team identified a number of opportunities to improve efficiencies and output quality, after observing limited plant throughput due to slurry flow restriction, plant downtime [...]

From Community to Industry: Solving Issues Related to Water

While industrial water only accounts for 20 percent of total water consumed, it can affect local communities and the environment. Industrial facilities need to be aware of their impact while being conscientious of what they can do to minimize consumption. To solve issues related to water, there needs to be an understanding that these water-related problems are happening globally and require global action, but there [...]

Hospital Reduces Corrosion Rates by 62% with Kurita鈥檚 Low Phosphorous Tower NG for Cooling Water

A large hospital in the United States was using traditional cooling water treatment technologies, supplied by another water treatment provider, to control deposits and corrosion in their systems. The local water contains ions that create both corrosive and scaling conditions. Moreover, discharge limitations for phosphorous were becoming a higher concern due to tightening regulations. The hospital’s [...]
