Mineral scale deposits, corrosion, suspended matter, and
microbiological growth are factors that must be controlled in
industrial water systems. Research on understanding the mechanisms
of these problems has attracted considerable attention in the past
three decades as has progress concerning water treatment additives
to ameliorate these concerns. The Science and Technology of
Industrial Water Treatment provides a comprehensive discussion on
the topic from specialists in industry and academia. The book
begins with an overview of water chemistry and covers the
characteristics of commonly encountered mineral scales. It
addresses the formation and control of different scales in various
systems and examines new developments in membrane-based separation
processes. Next, it provides a detailed account on the operational
challenges of reverse osmosis systems and scale control in thermal
distillation processes. The text explores corrosion control in
cooling, boiler, geothermal, and desalination systems and it
discusses the interactions of polyelectrolytes with suspended
matter. Includes coverage of a range of bacterial species,
including Legionella The book examines bacterial species commonly
encountered in water supplies, the mechanisms of biofouling,
approaches to control it, and criteria for selecting biocides for
water treatment applications. An entire chapter is devoted to
Legionella in water systems. Contributors describe various
analytical techniques for identifying mineral scales and deposits.
They also examine applications of polymers for treating industrial
and wastewater systems and give an account of analytical approaches
for monitoring various operational parameters and chemicals used to
treat industrial water systems. A valuable addition to the library
of academic researchers, this volume will also prove useful to
those working not only in the water treatment industry, but also to
those in petroleum, textiles, pharmaceuticals, and other areas
where purity processes are a significant concern.
