Abstract
Initial experience with an environmentally friendly biocide at a brackish water-cooled power plant showed that the biocide was very effective in controlling microbiological fouling of piping and condenser tubes. Subsequent activities demonstrated that the biocide could be used more economically by closely tracking the biocide's effectiveness on biofilm activity using an electrochemical biofilm activity monitor.
