Cooling tower water The main logic in water cooling towers is based on the cooling of the remaining water by evaporating some of the water. With this logic, it is quite natural that the residues of water are left behind in a system based on evaporation, and that these residues are started to cling to the pool at first, and then to some places on the filling afterwards. This congestion reduces the performance of the tower as it shrinks the filler surface in water cooling towers.

The hanging of these sediments in the water instead of adhering to the surface of the tower can be achieved with chemistry and is a desirable condition. Suspended lime and similar minerals are purified from this sediment and biological debris by periodically releasing water residues from the bottom of the pool under high pressure by a method called blowdown. Tower feed waters should be purified as much as possible from these deposits. The lime decontamination systems that provide this are called water softening devices, but these devices are sensitive and can be easily checked for lime leakage on daily basis. This is why maintenance personnel must be alert and periodically check that these devices work efficiently.
