Summary

In order to avoid corrosion problems and to reduce energy consumption, modifications were performed. First, the brine specification was updated. Then the two-pass brine distribution systems with evaporators connected in parallel was replaced with a four-pass brine distribution system with evaporators in series. Brine flow was reduced by 50% and pump horsepower by 40%, while maintaining sufficient fluid velocity in the heat exchangers.
