Description
This publication stresses the value of using corresponding systems in the industry with positive, clear results and documented examples. It provides objectivity concerning this very controversial discussion, as the technologies are still inherent of stigma and the lack of precise scientific evidence.
This is also a unique experience from other industries, including exactly quantifiable business benefits in the framework of the maintenance costs. A much needed market adjustment has taken place; the reputable suppliers could continue to develop their systems, or together with scientific research institutions could also provide proof of effect used.
The chemical-free methods described in this book are, in many cases, a genuine alternative to conventional methods of water treatment. These alternative methods are usually also capable to treat very large quantities of water and often without any consequential costs for the operators of the plant. Especially interesting, concerning some of the procedures, is the evidence referring to coverings of silicates, aluminates, phosphates, gypsum and their reduction. Additionally, often other technically usable effects are demonstrated.
The technical handbook is a comprehensive representation of the different physical chemical water treatment methods, as well as the listed references demonstrating their industrial applicability and encouraging their use.
Delivered in a PDF format, 180 pages.
