Fluorescence is a valuable tool in detecting tagged polymers in cooling tower water treatment. The method is rapid, non-destructive, easy to use, and cost-effective, making it a useful tool for monitoring the concentration of tagged polymers to maintain water quality and prevent the growth of microorganisms and corrosion.
Facility managers in charge of water system maintenance to prevent Legionella need an experienced, trusted partner to aid with testing and preventive treatment to keep these systems safe from bacteria, a partner like ChemREADY.
Monochloramine Water Treatment: Legionella are ubiquitous bacteria with a worldwide spread in natural and artificial water environments, able to survive in a range of environmental conditions. Their ability to colonize our artificial water systems represents a serious concern for public health, since they can cause pneumonia and other respiratory illness (collectively referred to as “legionellosis”), especially in susceptible individuals.
Getting a positive Legionella hit in your domestic water system is not the kind of news any healthcare facility wants to hear, but there are steps you can take to mitigate the situation and protect the people on your site.
There are some significant changes happening in healthcare facilities when it comes to the standards required for testing and maintenance of the water systems within their buildings.
Due to a rise in cases of Legionella during the past several years, government agencies have taken a closer look at how efficiently health care facilities are maintaining their water treatment systems.
