1. Presentation Title Presented by Joe Blow Top Applications

3. Spray Nozzle Heat Exchangers Pre-Filtration Sumps and Basins Waste Minimization

4. Application: Spray Nozzles

5. Problems Plugging Distorted spray pattern Material defects Improper heat transfer Process stoppage Nozzle erosion/wear Upstream equipment wear i.e. pump seals Benefits Maintain original nozzle design Prevent wear and abrasion Continuous operation Maintain production quality Spray Nozzle Opportunities

6. Spray Nozzle Industries Steel/Coke Mill Continuous casting Cooling slabs, blooms, billets Descaling of steel Quenching and Cooling Pickling line cooling Car Wash Pressure Wash Rinsing and soaking Detergent application Automotive Parts Washing Rinsing and Drying

7. Spray Nozzle Payback Auto Plant – AB199 Paint defects reduced by 85% Casting Plant – AB207 Reduced product defect by 35% Steel Mill – AB186 Payback within 5 months

8. Application: Heat Exchangers

9. Heat Exchanger Opportunities Problems Fouling Increased energy costs Increased maintenance cost Benefits Maintain design energy efficiencies Reduce maintenance frequency Remove suspended grit and scale

10. Heat Exchanger Fouling

11. Heat Exchanger Industries Food and Beverage Chemical Processing Pulp/Paper processing Power Generation Pharmaceutical Renewable Industries

12. Heat Exchanger Payback Manufacturing Plant – AB220 Six month payback Electric Power Plant – AB192 Saved $150,000 USD per year

13. Application: Pre-Filtration

14. Pre-Filtration Opportunities Problems Labor, maintenance and downtime Disposal and acquisition cost Fluctuating pressure loss requires oversizing Benefits Extended bag/cartridge life Reduce disposal cost No stoppage in process

15. Pre-Filtration Industries Food and Beverage Drinking water Municipal water Produce washing Automotive

16. Pre-Filtration Payback Automotive Plant – AB183 Reduced maintenance and unscheduled downtime Auto Manufacturer – AB148 $15,000 a year in savings

17. Application: Towers, Sumps, and Pits

18. Towers and Sumps Opportunities Problems Heat Transfer Efficiencies Solids buildup Process fluid life Microbial growth and chemical usage Benefits Fewer shutdowns Reduce solids buildup and decrease clean out time Maintain design heat transfer efficiencies

19. Towers and Sumps Industries Refrigeration Chemical Processing Pulp/Paper processing Power Generation Pharmaceutical Metals Processing Heavy/Medium Manufacturing

20. Towers and Sumps Payback Manufacturing Plant – AB174 Reduced quench tank maintenance Wire Manufacturer – AB159 Reduced Tower Maintenance by 95%

21. Application: Waste Minimization

22. Waste Minimization Opportunities Problems Disposal costs Process fluid waste Difficult recovery of valuable solids Benefits Reduce disposal costs Extend life of process fluids Concentrate solids for recovery Reduce replacement of downstream filter media Extend pump seal life

23. Waste Minimization Industries Food/Beverage Plants Mining Metals Processing Heavy Manufacturing Steel Mills/Coke Plants Food Processing

24. Waste Minimization Payback Sugar Cane Plant – AB219 Reduced maintenance for CIP systems Reduced juice loss and improved retention capability Plastic Extrusion Plant – AB115 Reduced waste-water discharge costs Reduced required manpower
