Legionella adelaidensis, a new species isolated from cooling tower water.
A Legionella-like organism (strain 1762-AUS-E) was isolated from a cooling tower of an air-conditioning system in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. The isolate was presumptively identified as a Legionella strain by its growth requirement for L-cysteine and its cellular branched-chain fatty acids. Strain 1762-AUS-E was serologically distinct in the slide agglutination test with absorbed anti...
متن کاملExposure Assessment to Environmental Pollutants in Human Health Risk Assessment Studies; Overview on New Approaches
Background & objectives: Because of human exposure to various environmental risk factors during the lifetime, the actual exposure estimation has been considered as one of the most important challenges for researchers and decision makers. Considering the contribution of environmental risk factors in the burden of diseases, this study aimed to provide new approaches in exposure assessment filed b...
متن کاملA Comprehensive Approach to an Optimum Design and Simulation Model of a Mechanical Draft Wet Cooling Tower
The present paper describes the designing of a thermally and economically optimum mechanical draft counter-flow wet cooling tower. The design model allows the use of a variety of packing materials in the cooling tower toward optimizing heat transfer. Once the optimum packing type is chosen, a compact cooling tower with low fan power consumption is modelled within the known design variables....
متن کاملCooling Tower Energy & Operating Cost Analysis Software
The Cooling Tower Energy & Operating Cost Analysis Software is an in-house program developed by Tower Tech and is used to design and evaluate the performance and life-cycle costs associated with a cooling tower. This version can be used to estimate the cost to purchase and operate a Tower Tech cooling tower and a competitor’s tower. A number of assumptions about the details of the competitor’s ...
متن کاملIndustrial Cooling Tower Disinfection Treatment to Prevent Legionella spp.
The contamination of industrial cooling towers has been identified as one cause of legionellosis, but the real risk has been underestimated. Two different disinfection treatments were tested on Legionella colonization in an industrial Cooling Tower System (CTS). Environmental monitoring of Legionella, P. aeruginosa, and a heterotrophic plate count (HPC) at 36 °C was performed from June to Octob...
