Practical engineering design and building management are crucial for minimising the growth of Legionella bacteria and preventing Legionnaires’ disease. Although Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks are infrequent, they can be life-threatening. Factors such as water usage, turnover, occupancy times, and sanitary specifications can contribute to the growth of bacteria, which can harbour and provide a source of…

The world faces an existential threat of climate change, and governments are scrambling to find solutions. One such solution that has gained traction in recent years is the Net Zero strategy. This strategy aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to zero by balancing the emissions produced with an equivalent amount removed from the atmosphere. Net…
Cooling tower operators face a unique challenge: prioritising safety from bacterial infections while reducing operating costs. One of the most significant risks they face is biofilm build up on condenser plates and cooling tower packs, which can act as an insulating layer, slowing heat transfer, reducing water flow, and increasing pumping costs. Biofilm can harbour…
When we think of achieving Net Zero emissions, we often imagine large-scale projects like wind farms or solar power plants. However, the reality is that small changes made by individuals and businesses can have a significant impact on our journey to a sustainable future. These small changes are often overlooked, but they are the hidden…
Chlorine Dioxide can help minimise odour emissions and ensure environmental compliance. Industrial odour emissions can be a significant issue for companies regarding environmental responsibility and maintaining good relationships with nearby communities. To control these emissions effectively, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of the upstream process and any potential variability that may occur.…
