Abstract: An evaporative recirculation cooling water system, the system having a recirculation loop to recirculate water through the system, a construction with a space to cool the water in the recirculation loop by evaporation, and a water entry point to allow water into the recirculation loop. The system has a charge barrier flow through capacitor constructed and arranged to remove ions from the water and a dosing system whereby a scale inhibitor is continuously dosed into the inlet flow into the flow through capacitor.

Abstract: A method of operating an apparatus to remove ions, the method including allowing water to flow in between a first and a second electrode of a capacitor, charging the capacitor with an electrical charge via a controller in order to attract ions into the electrodes; and releasing ions from the electrodes by releasing electrical charge from the capacitor via the controller. During a subsequent charging step, charging of the capacitor may be controlled with the controller by applying an electrical charge which does not substantially exceed a quantity of electrical charge released from the capacitor during the releasing of ions to keep the capacitor in balance.

Abstract: An apparatus to remove ions including a plurality of capacitive electrode stacks. Each capacitive electrode stack may have: a plurality of first electrodes including a plurality of first current collectors; a plurality of second electrodes including a plurality of second current collectors; and a spacer between the first and second electrodes to allow water to flow in between the electrodes. The second current collectors of a first of the plurality of capacitive electrode stacks may be connected to the first current collectors of a second of the plurality of capacitive electrode stacks.
