The VRTX chemical free cooling water treatment system is backed by 40 years of research and development, 17 inter-related patents, and over 15 years of continuous service at customer locations with VRTX equipment operating 24 hours per day.
Research and independent analysis proves our method of chemical free treatment is extremely effective in controlling scale, corrosion, and bacteria in cooling waters.
Cooling water is drawn from the Cooling Tower or Evaporative Condenser sump. Velocity, trajectory, and rotation are imparted to create opposing water streams as they leave the precision nozzles.
The water collides with tremendous kinetic energy and shear. At the core of these streams, a region of near total vacuum is created which degasses the flow.
Under these conditions, hydrodynamic cavitation occurs with intense, microscopically localized extremes of temperature (up to 9,000°F),
pressure (up to 1,000 atmospheres), and high-energy micro-jets.
