Abstract:
Historically, filtration has been perceived as a solution to a
problem. More specifically, once the problem has manifest
itself, a solution is subsequently sought.. which generally
results in the applied removal of the troublesome contaminant
from a given fluid. Instead, it is suggested that there are
specific instances where the prevention of contaminants may be a
more viable solution. The presentation focuses on the common
problem of bacteria growth as a result of particle accumulation.
Identifying the contributing characteristics that create the
bacteria, technology in introduced which may help prevent its
occurrence, thereby avoiding the subsequent need for means to
remove or neutralize bacterial contaminants. Application
concepts, illustrations, case stories and technical formulae for
applying this technology will be introduced and reviewed.

Abstract:
This paper highlights specific problems associated with a Cold
Water Basin Cleaning in an eleven (11) cell cross flow cooling
tower in Northern Alberta at the Syncrude Canada Site. The
cleaning involved structural modifications of nine (9) of the
eleven (11) cells and a diversion of 100,000 gallons of water
per minute to maintain plant operation. This would be the first
cleaning of the tower in 20 plus years of operation and two
major hydrogen mishaps to the tower. The cleaning and diversion
while maintaining tower operation and plant operation has never
before been attempted anywhere in Canada and is possible the
first ever done anywhere in the world.
