Overview

Delivering Performance, Efficiency, and Reliability to the Petrochemical Industry

At Dorf Ketal, our success in the petrochemical sector stems from one principle: listening to our customers. By understanding the unique challenges you face in a rapidly evolving production environment, we have developed innovative chemistries and problem-solving services that deliver the performance, efficiency, and reliability your operations demand.

Closed Loop / Chilled Water systems are mostly used for

Comfort Cooling

Process closed water loops

Hot water in process applications

Condenser cooling

The nature of closed loop systems is such that very little water is used as makeup and hence corrosion and microfouling are the potential problems

Corrosion can be pitting, galvanic and/or crevice attack. Inhibitors typically used are nitrates, molybdates for effective control

Microbiological fouling is due to iron reducing bacteria, nitrifying bacteria and pseudomonas slime forming bacteria. These foulants reduce sysem efficiency and increase operating and maintenance costs.

Dorf Ketal has extensive experience of protecting and treating close loop circuits.

For HVAC applications Initial flushing, cleaning and passivation of the chilled water circuits is a very important activity to maintain long term health of the system. Most large chilled water HVAC systems can never be stopped once operational. Careful initial flushing and passivation can protect the system for a long time and can give trouble free services.
