Cooling tower cleanliness and heat dissipation optimization

Model ESMC-Zn-CW

Cooling Tower Zinc Ion Cleanliness & Heat Dissipation Optimization System

Patented Zinc Ion Technology for Lasting Cleanliness and Visible Energy Savings.

By regularly dosing a patented zinc ion solution into the cooling water side, this system effectively inhibits and reduces biofilm adhesion. It maintains the cleanliness of cooling fills and fan blades, enhances heat dissipation efficiency, lowers equipment load, and reduces maintenance cleaning costs for long-term, stable, and high-efficiency operation.

Cooling Tower Zinc Ion System
Inhibits Biofilm Adhesion
Boosts Heat Dissipation
Reduces Chiller Load
Lowers Maintenance Costs
Reliable Long-Term Operation

System Principle

The patented zinc ion solution is dosed into the cooling water side on a regular and quantitative basis. Once released, the zinc ions interact with microorganisms and organic matter in the biofilm, disrupting their structure and preventing re-attachment. This fundamentally maintains clean cooling fills and fan surfaces, ensuring long-term stable cooling efficiency.

Biofilm Impact on Heat Dissipation (Research Report)

Multiple studies indicate that thicker biofilm increases thermal resistance, significantly lowering heat dissipation efficiency.

Impact of Biofilm Thickness on Dissipation Efficiency
Flemming et al., 2011 ASHRAE RR 1576, 2018 Koutsoukos et al., 2006
Every 1 mm increase in biofilm thickness reduces heat dissipation efficiency by approx. 8%–12%
