With the increased use and interest in ozone for microbiological control in recirculating cooling water systems, the effect of ozone on standard cooling water scale and corrosion inhibitors has become critically important. We have subjected different inorganic and organic inhibitors to significant ozone levels in the laboratory. These materials then were evaluated in various performance tests, as well as analytically, to determine the impact of ozone on the different categories of cooling water treatment programs. The test results have suggested some general guidelines for using ozone in conjunction with traditional recirculating cooling water treatment programs.
