Biofouling Control in Small Cooling Towers

Why is biofouling control overlooked in small cooling towers?

Biofouling control in small to medium cooling towers is overlooked. AMSA, Inc. has developed a simple technology that is easier to dose than more common liquid chemical equivalents.  DTEA II™ Slow Release tablets give personnel at schools, hospitals, and office buildings a safer treatment option that can last up to 30 days.  Most importantly, when used in conjunction with a solid form of DBNPA, such as, AQUCAR™ SUMP BUDDY™ DB 40 TL Water Treatment Microbiocide you have an effective Biofilm Control Program™.

This short video shows how easily biofouling control in small cooling towers can be achieved using DTEA II™ Slow Release tablets.
