13-09: How Stripping Biofilm From The Cooling Water Loop Impacts Power PlantThe operational relationship between the cooling towers cooling loop performance and power plant production load is vitally important. When condenser tube sheet fouling is present, the production load of the power plant is affected especially if the power plant is operating at its peak capacity. It becomes a critical concern if biofilm, visible or not, is present in condenser tube sheets as even a small amount of biofilm has a significant impact on
