Dolphin water care
- 1. Because we all live downstream™
- 2. Clearwater Systems Corporation is a cleantech water treatment company committed to helping solve the world’s Clearwater Headquarters in most demanding sustainability Middletown, Connecticut: A LEED Silver Building challenges in buildings. 2
- 4. Building Sustainability Challenges Water Consumption JUST THE FACTS End Uses There are over 4.9 million of Water In commercial buildings in the Office U.S. Buildings Over 10 billion gallons of water are used per day in U.S. commercial buildings A typical office building uses 33% of total water demand for cooling (source: US Energy Information Administration, 2006) © Clearwater Systems Corporation, 2012 Unauthorized Reproduction Is Strictly Prohibited 4
- 5. Why Do Facility Owners Treat Water? Extend the operational life of expensive cooling equipment Ensure that cooling equipment runs efficiently Prevent the spread of disease from pathogens Today over 99% of building cooling water is treated with chemicals 5
- 6. Problems With Existing Chemical Water Treatment Chemical handling Difficult administration Biocides and corrosion translates to and balancing of inhibitors have a negative increased risk for multiple chemicals effect on the environment building operators throughout lifecycle and human health Chemical discharge into the environment via water discharge, air emissions, spills and drift © Clearwater Systems Corporation, 2012 Unauthorized Reproduction Is Strictly Prohibited 6

- 10. The Dolphin WaterCare Solution
- 11. Dolphin WaterCare: Proven Thousands of installations over more than a decade Simplicity of design Ease of installation Reliable operation Low maintenance Low-energy use 11
- 12. The Dolphin Mechanism The Signal Generator in communication with the Treatment Module imparts high frequency pulsed electromagnetic fields into flowing water. • Pulsed electromagnetic fields “activate” • Precipitation is favored around the suspended particles readily available in “activated” suspended particles – the water flow system surfaces remain free from scale
- 13. Dolphin WaterCare in Action Pulse power technology creates an induced, time-varying, electro-magnetic field which provides traditional water treatment benefits – in an environmentally responsible manner Scale Prevention and Corrosion & Biological Control Untreated: Dolphin Treatment: Electroporation: Scale formation on Particle formation in Pulse damages bacteria equipment surfaces cooling water membrane inhibiting reproduction © Clearwater Systems Corporation, 2012 Unauthorized Reproduction Is Strictly Prohibited 13
