Day 2 of Industrial Water Week is here! Today we celebrate by answering a few questions about boilers and I am joined by one of my mentors, Bruce Ketrick, CWT. Here are the questions we are answering today. What causing foaming in a boiler? Foaming is primarily caused by high solids. As the boiler concentration increases, the boiling bubble cannot “pop” as quickly and they begin to build up on each other. Forming a creamy foam. This can be solved by lowering the concentration or reducing other

Scaling UP! Nation!, you know that I believe you get out of our industry what you put into our industry. This is my normal response to when someone asks me why I train others, why I volunteer for trade organizations and especially why I do this podcast. I truly believe that you should teach what you know. Educate yourself and you get smarter, teach what you know, and you get even smarter (because a teacher needs to know content better than a student) and the person you are teaching gets smarter

2018/09/18

Water treaters need to realize that everything we do is “green.” Our entire reason for being is to make the systems we treat more efficient.

005 Water Treaters = Superheroes

Scaling UP! H2O ·

2018/09/18

I bet you didn’t know that you are a Superhero. A water treater has to combat issues that most mortals are unable to overcome. These issues are corrosion, scaling, microbial fouling and invasion of dirt and debris in our systems. Maybe a human can take on one or two of these issues. Taking them all on at the same time, successfully, only a Superhero can do that… Water Treaters = Superheroes

2018/09/18

We take a closer look at service reports. The service report is a legal document AND it is a direct link to everything you did or didn't do on-site. Many of us do not give the service report the respect it deserves. Far too often when I consult with other water treatment companies, I see lacking service reports. Use the service report to enhance the value you give to that account. The Catalyst: Look at your last service report and ask yourself how it would stand up in a court of law. Now right
