McCoy's guide to the maintenance and management of cooling water systems and the bacteria that live in them.
Includes studies and testing of microbicides and other microorganisms that infest re-circulating cooling water systems and factors influencing their health and growth.
Tests biological oxidation processes as a way of reusing treated effluents as an important method of water conservation in the petroleum refining and chemical processing industries.
Explores practical methods for controlling microorganisms in cooling water; including working with chlorine dioxide as a microbicide.
Methods are given for identifying and evaluating toxicants and bacteria that lead to fouling and staining of cooling water systems.
