AB - <p><strong>Project Background</strong></p><p>The U.S. Department of Energy Industrial Efficiency and Decarbonization Office’s Industrial Technology Validation (ITV) program aims to identify and demonstrate the performance of new, emerging, and underutilized technologies in the industrial sector to help inform decisions towards accelerating commercialization and deployment.<br>&nbsp;</p><p>One such ITV project is to demonstrate the performance of an electrochemical water treatment technology on a cooling tower at an automotive plant. Cooling towers are vital equipment for dissipating heat from industrial processes. However, they face challenges related to scaling, corrosion, and the growth of biological contaminants. Effective cooling tower water filtration and treatment is essential to reduce these contaminants, along with other total suspended solids (TSS) and total dissolved solids (TDS) in the system. Various treatment systems, such as sand-based filters, centrifugal separators, and disc filters, offer distinct advantages and limitations. ElectroCell Systems offers a skid-mounted, electrochemical based, side-stream filtration system.</p>
