An Introduction to Cooling Tower Water Treatment
This online engineering PDH course describes water treatment requirements for the most common cooling tower systems, once-through and open recirculating, in industrial applications.
Cooling water systems remove heat generated from a variety of industrial processes. There are three basic types of cooling water systems: once-through, open recirculating, and closed recirculating cooling water systems.
This 5 PDH online course is intended for mechanical engineers and other design and construction professionals seeking an introduction to the technologies, equipment and operational practices for treatment of cooling tower water.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
-
Learning about once-through cooling water systems
-
Learning about open recirculating cooling water systems
-
Learning about natural draft, induced draft, and forced draft cooling towers
-
