Chlorination will prevent these problems. If the seawater is to be used for water injection, then fine filtration is required to remove suspended particulate material.
Chlorination is used to maximize the efficiency of fine filtration processes.
It has an excellent safety record, and has the only electrolytic cell in the world with IP65 protection, suitable for installation in a hazardous area without needing to be in a secondary enclosure. Systems can be provided to treat cooling water, injection water or process cooling water. A small stand-alone electrochlorinator can be provided to operate the fine filter, while the BFCC system is used for the bulk water flow. 2001 Baker Hughes Incorporated. All Rights Reserved.
