I started water treatment year and a half ago. It can be very confusing at times for someone new. This video helped me out. Blair is a great teacher Thankyou Ken
This is very helpful! What is the capacity of this cooling system, i.e. 300-tons? What is the annual cost of the antiscalants, biocides and other water treatments; and how much water is lost through blowdown and evaporation, or amount in new water added each month?
Depends what type of system we are talking about. A cooling tower will naturally bleed at whatever set point it’s set to. Where as a closed loop heating system you can only add filtration
Good video and usefull for me because im starting me career in water treatment now in few days in steel plants please upload some more videos about water treatment process...
It can save cost if you use water fluorescent tracer (cas:59572-10-0) to monitor your water treating chemicals' dosing in cooling towers and boilers. Manufacture's suggestion. THANKS!
very good , its helpful Ken : I would like to add , particularly in open loop system in cooling towers the water takes some air and oxygen exist in the air will react with the steel pipes and oxidation process takes place and forms ferrous oxide (corrosion) will occur. then it is necessary to add anti corrosion chemicals.
Why aren't you feeding a non-oxidizing biocide in addition to the bromine? Dual biocide programs are ideal for cooling towers, especially if you can use products that have a synergistic effect (like bleach and iso).
30 minutes to test water each day for this system. blowdown depends on several factors. 1. city TDS, 2. system run time, 3. system running capacity, 4. outside temperatures.
Very interesting. Bromine is typically used in spa's and swimming pools. For a cooling tower say 250 Ton, what concentration of bromine do you use/set/look for?
10:05 I want to get one of those metering pumps to constantly add small amounts of chlorine to my swimming pool, so I don't have to do it with a pail every week. Does anyone know what brand those pumps are?
That’s my current title, I work for the 2nd largest Brewery in Los Angeles. Typically any BS in Science can get you hired but some of the places I’ve worked at least want you to have an A.S. Degree. I have a B.S. in Chemistry but there are also programs like Water Treatment Operator I, II or III certifications you can get at some community colleges. That’s probably the fastest, cheapest way to go, then just start getting EXPERIENCE.

Thanks for putting these videos together. Training is very varied across the nation and I appreciate your efforts in putting these videos out Ken.
Great video, I'm using RUclips videos to help me study for my 4th class Power Engineering exam and clips like this are very helpful.
*GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO GUYS* 😎👍🏼👍🏼
Educational, but yet not too technical. Great video, good job. Showing my team this video soon.

Thank for your sharing. This is essensial inforation for chemical treatment. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing such useful information.
Great tutorial! Can you do a tutorial on what needs to be done if conductivity or ORP is too high or too low?

Thx Ken. These are really helpful

Thank you very much. Great video
I know blaire. Does alot of work here in California. Used him on a ton of jobs. Great guy
That was a very clear and informative video! We are expecting another one about boilers as well please!! Thank you :)
Boilers are easier, closed loop and you only are maintaining Nitrate Levels.

Great great video Ken and team. Thank you!
How long does the water treatment process take? How often should blowdown be done? Thanks for sharing! 🌎🥼🧪
30 minutes to test water each day for this system.
blowdown depends on several factors. 1. city TDS, 2. system run time, 3. system running capacity, 4. outside temperatures.
@@KenTraining Thanks Ken!
Good work by team
really helpful and quite deep
Great great video Ken and team. Thank you! 2018
Very interesting. Bromine is typically used in spa's and swimming pools. For a cooling tower say 250 Ton, what concentration of bromine do you use/set/look for?
Sorry, I don't manage that facility anymore and I can't remember the settings.
Good job Ken!
What size containers do the chemicals come in?
I think they were 5 gallon containers but this was a while ago.
10:05 I want to get one of those metering pumps to constantly add small amounts of chlorine to my swimming pool, so I don't have to do it with a pail every week. Does anyone know what brand those pumps are?

@@reidgarrett2531 Thanks!
Thank you guys that's well explained. Good job👍
Solinoid valve?
Enjoyed the video Gents. Good job!
How do you measure the chemicals consumption weekly ? And the logging sheet .
The water treatment company sets up with the logging sheet. I don't have that property anymore, so don't have the sheets.
@@KenTraining ok , thank you.
what type of certification required for a Quality control Specialist (QC).

What level of molybdenum to maintain?
Great video thanks for sharing
Thank u guys for everything,great video
Thank you. This was wonderful
Good tutorial
Range is high though system is under efficiency. ...is it possible Sir? ??
Very Helpful
Which chemical is used in chemical dosing system
I Don't have that building anymore and I don't remember what the chemical name was.
Great Questions Ken
Great vídeo!
1500 setpoint on the tower seems low? What is the incoming alkalinity?
we no longer have this property. this is a few years old.
you did not add chemicals to the chilled water loop but only the condenser loop???????????
Thanks
Thanks guys
great video thanks for the upload. help thanks
Hello, I am from Iraq. I would like to speak with one of the laboratory agency
really nice.. thank you.
Good stuff for learners.
nice video
Awesome quite fabulous it’s great quite fabulous too good lvvvvllyyyy
120ppm hardness for city water is very high.
yes it was.
thank youuuu
Bromine level. 0.5ppm I figure?
Damn, al 16:20 someone need to replace belts..
or get a VFD
Also Walchem > Lakewood
honesty the information given here on chemical reaction is not helpful this is just basic explanation of water treatment
Did you make any.
Educational, but yet not too technical. Great video, good job. Showing my team this video soon.
