R. Romo, M. M Pitts and N. B. Handagama. “Biofouling Control in Heat Exchangers Using High Voltage Capacitance Based Technology” ECI Symposium Series, Volume RP5: Proceedings of 7^th International Conference on Heat Exchanger Fouling and Cleaning — Engineering Conferences International, Tomar, Portugal, July 1 — 6, 2007

Abstract:
…Four dif­fer­ent appli­ca­tion case stud­ies are pre­sent­ed in this paper in which High Voltage Capacitance Based (HVCB) tech­nol­o­gy was used to con­trol bio­foul­ing. The appli­ca­tions include an evap­o­ra­tive cool­ing wall in a green­house in Oracle, Arizona; a cool­ing tower–condenser appli­ca­tion in Phoenix, Arizona (study per­formed by Arizona State University under a U.S. Department of Energy grant); a cool­ing tow­er sys­tem using reclaimed indus­tri­al waste water at a wafer facil­i­ty in Camas, WA; and a pip­ing sys­tem for a major util­i­ty plant (Tennessee Valley Authority – TVA) using riv­er water.
