Energy and Water Savings in the Textile Industry

David M. Hall

Textile Engineering Department, 115 Textile Building, Auburn University, Auburn, AL 36849-5327, USADmhall{at}eng.auburn.edu

A unique water treatment system that alters the electro-chemistry of the managed water allows for a modification of the physical characteristics of cooling tower make up water that increases the solids content and certain other ions in the water. The result is a system that controls bacteria and fungi, eliminates bleed/blow down, eliminates corrosion and pitting, as well as scale through the use of Magnetic Field Generators that are a part of the system. The process continuously removes and filters solids, scale, and other debris from the system. The results of a study employing this process for three textile mills in Alabama are provided.
