South Africa Dairy Condenser: No New Scale, No Chemicals

Home 9 Case Studies and Results 9 South Africa Dairy Condenser: No New Scale, No Chemicals
Key results
0 new scale observed
3 month softening period
0 chemical dosing

Case Study from HydroFLOW South Africa

The Challenges

  • Hard scale on tubes and internal panels
  • Heavy deposits on spray nozzles and frames
  • Reduced heat transfer efficiency
  • Reliance on continuous chemical dosing

The Solution

One HydroFLOW® i120 unit was fitted to the 100mm vertical circulating pipe of Condenser No. 4 in May 2020. The signal disrupts the conditions that bond scale to surfaces, so existing deposits soften and no new scale forms during operation.

Key Outcomes

R

No new scale formed on cleaned surfaces

R

Condenser ran without chemical dosing

R

Existing deposits softened and removable by hand

R

Outperformed an untreated reference unit

Independent Verification
