At QualiChem Inc, we make it a top priority to ensure that you have all of the information needed to effectively and efficiently operate your water treatment business.
This checklist offers you an overview of everything you'll need to take your shut down boiler to a fully operating one. Keep it handy as you go on-site to provide startup services to your equipment. Our checklist starts with placing valves in their startup position and takes you all the way through to when you will collect water samples to test.
In our next post in this series, we want to discuss causes of microbiological fouling. This type of fouling occurs when planktonic, or free floating bacteria, attach to surfaces throughout the cooling system. As they attach, the bacteria will form a slime barrier that is used to protect the bacteria and to enhance the ability to stay attached to the surface. This environment they produce also helps with growth of the bacteria as it is a stable surrounding that can provide the food and protection needed for the bacteria to flourish.
We’re back from another great AWT show. We really enjoyed meeting new water treatment professionals, seeing many of our terrific customers, and spending time in beautiful San Diego.
This year’s AWT was truly special. We were incredibly humbled and honored to be recognized by our peers, customers, and the AWT as the 2016 Supplier of the Year.
So, what does it mean to be named Supplier of The Year?
