Situation/Problem

• They hove 2 boilers: primary boiler is a York-Shipley fire tube boiler roted al 24,000 pounds per hour; standby boiler is a Cleaver Brook water tube bailer rated at 20,000 pounds per hour.
• Their steam usage in the summer is 8,000 ta 12,000 pounds per hour; winter usage is 14,000 to 20,000 pounds per hours. A significant amount of hot water is needed to produce the steam, resulting in high energy usage.
• After dissolved solids build up in a boiler, the equipment needs ta “blow down” in order ta send the impurities dawn the drain. Prior to the installotion of equipment, they were blowing down approximately 4500 gallons of waste water per day.
• Feed water to boiler wos 210 ports per million (TDS), or 12 groins per gallon on overage. Heating water with a high level of TDS causes significant scale build-up. Heeling elements in the boiler hove to heat through the scale before reaching the water, thus causing high energy use. for boilers, it’s best to hove no more than 3-5 groins per gallon or ideally, less than one groin per gallon!

Solution

• Lower the TDS rote, thereby decreosing the amount of blow-downs and improve energy efficiency.
• Decrease water usage and chemical usage, resulting in cost savings.

Equipment Installed/Services Implemented

• R.O. system to lower TDS and reduce blow-down rote.
• Carbon filter that protects R.O. system by filtering out chlorine that could be harmful to on R.O. system’s membrane.
• Storage tanks.
• Cleaner for R.O. system.
• Annual inspection/servicing of equipment.

Results/Customer Benefits

• Total annual savings of $52,711.
• Since installation of the R.O. equipment, they’ve reduced blow-downs from 4500 gallons of water per day to less than 200 gallons per day.
• The estimated energy savings from blow-downs and the savings in water and sewage costs is $31,000 annually.
• Chemical costs went from $38,905 in 2002 to $24,694 in 2005, for a yearly savings of $14,211. (Equipment was installed in 2003)
• With the R.O. system, Georgia Pacific was able to direct the concentrate water directly to storm (to the river) rather than going through a waste water treatment facility, thus avoiding fees.
• TDS of the feed water to the boiler hos gone from 210 ports per million (12 groins per gallon to approximately 24 ports per million (just over 1 groin per gallon, resulting in 8 times less solids entering the boiler.
• Georgia Pacific received a rebate check from their state’s energy company because they improved energy conservation.

Culligan Advantages

• Competitive pricing.
• Full line offering of water treatment equipment.
• Consultative, solutions-based selling approach.

Situation/Problem

Cadbury Adams uses a couple hundred gallons of water per day. They had high salt usage, and large amounts of brine discharge to the sanitary systems. Brine is highly salty and contains heavy metal and organic contaminants – not environment-friendly.

Solution

Cadbury Adams is concerned about environmental issues and voluntarily makes improvements wherever they can.

We showed them how we could integrate brine reclaim and save them significant money on salt usage. There would be less brine going down the drain and they would be helping the environment as well.

Equipment Installed/Services Implemented

New electronic control for brine reclaim.

Results/Customer Benefits

• They won the 2004 IL Governor’s Award for Pollution Prevention.
• Through 9 months, Cadbury Adams saved 221,380 lbs. of salt valued at $8302 and discharged 490,400 gallons less at a savings of $2,207 on sewage bills.
• They also save approximately $320/month in labor.
• In total, the customer estimates a savings of $14,439 in one year.

Culligan Advantages

• Strength of Culligan reputation.
• Reputation of the dealership and local service.
• Customer focused service department.
• Calculation of brine reclaim savings projection.
• Overall Commercial/Industrial expertise.

Situation/Problem

• The correctional facility has 25 grain hard water.
• They had a softener system with 8 different install locations. Six were outdated and needed to be replaced. They agreed to also replace the other 2 locations that had non-Culligan equipment.
• The hard water had caused so much damage to their massive boilers that they needed to be replaced.
• All drains, toilets, etc., in prisons need to hove stainless steel grates to prevent inmates from hiding dangerous objects. Shower stalls need to be stainless steel, as well, since tile is sometimes broken off and used as weapons. Hard water eats away at stainless steel, and the cost to replace would be enormous.

Solution

Multiple Water Softeners

Equipment Installed/Services Implemented

• Quad Plex Softeners.
• Duplex Softeners.
• 6 x Triplex Softeners.
• Custom Built Central Brine Pumping Stotion.

Results/Customer Benefits

• Soft water throughout facility reduced service on boilers, domestic hot water heaters, and cooling lowers.
• Reduced mointenonce/replocement of fixtures, drain screens etc.
• The facility realized the significant reduction in overall maintenance costs related to hard water problems.
• Brine reclaim.
• Quad Plex was installed in main boiler room using brine reclaim to reduce soil consumption. They typically used 15,000 lbs. of solt per month. They estimate the savings to be approximately 25%. All systems designed using progressive Row to reduce pressure loss. New brine pumps ore designed by Grundfos for salt water applications and constant running, thus eliminating breakdowns and maintenance.

Culligan Advantages

• Consultative soles process – toking the lime to understand the needs of the customers.
• Ability to accurately size the equipment through proprietary Culligan software.
• The dealership’s track record of great service.

Culligan International Company, a global innovator of high-quality water treatment solutions for business and residential use, announced today that Culligan International (Emirates), its affiliate in Dubai, has been named as the water treatment contractor of choice for the world’s soon-to-be tallest building, the Burj Dubai skyscraper. Also known as the Dubai Tower, the $1 billion venture, which is promoted by Emaar Properties, is expected to be completed by the end of 2008. It is located in the heart of the Downtown Burj Dubai district in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and will be more than 700 meters (2,296 feet) and more than 160 stories tall.

This flagship construction project attracted competitive bids from all over the world, and Culligan’s Dubai affiliate was selected to provide multimedia filters to supply drinking water to the building as well as chilled water treatment for the tower’s air conditioning system.

“The Dubai Tower is a showcase of the world’s best in class technology. Culligan’s selection is a testament to the value of Culligan’s water expertise and advanced water treatment solutions on a global scale, given the scope of this project and the technology required to bring it to fruition,” said Jim Coleman, Chief Marketing Officer, Culligan International Company.

Innovative Technology Applied to Construction Project

For more than 70 years, Culligan has been recognized as a world-leading provider of water softeners and filtration systems that improve water quality in the home and workplace. The company also makes a significant investment in research and development initiatives that support better, cleaner water. Specifically for the Burj Dubai skyscraper, the Company will provide:

• 60″ Multimedia Filters – These filters will supply the building’s drinking water, and are custom-designed in 316L stainless steel to ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) standards, by Culligan’s affiliate in Bologna, Italy.
• Chemical Treatment – Culligan will supply equipment and chemicals to treat the chilled water distribution system used for the building’s air conditioning – a critical function in the UAE where summers can reach up to 113 degrees Fahrenheit (45 degrees Celsius). Chemical additions will inhibit corrosion, biological growth and scaling typical in a chilled water application.
