Cooling Water Treatment Chemicals Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth 2024
Water is one of the major and most affordable universal solvents in the world. It is abundantly available worldwide and has high heat capacity. This makes it an ideal medium for heat exchange in cooling and filtration systems. Water consists of dissolved salts and minerals such as salts and oxides of calcium, magnesium, silica, carbonates, and chlorides. It also contains biological impurities such as bacteria, which gets precipitated and sticks to the walls of the water cooling equipment surfaces when encountered with heat. Heat exchange is one of the major functions of water cooling equipments. Precipitation of dissolved salts in water takes place due to the heat exchange. The precipitated minerals can cause damage (corrosion, clogging and fouling) to cooling system equipment. As water get concentrated in cooling systems it dissolves ions which may exceed the solubility of some minerals and results in scale formation in pipes, dissolved oxygen and other nutrients in wat...
