ENHANCED BIOCIDE TREATMENTS WITH D-AMINO ACID MIXTURES AGAINST A BIOFILM CONSORTIUM FROM A WATER COOLING TOWER

Enhanced Biocide Treatments with D-amino Acid Mixtures against a Biofilm Consortium from a Water Cooling Tower

Different species of microbes form mixed-culture biofilms in cooling water systems.They cause microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and Nose Bands biofouling, leading to increased operational and maintenance costs.In this work, two D-amino acid mixtures were found to enhance two non-oxidizing biocides [tetrakis hydroxymethyl phosphonium sulf
