Biofilm & Scaling Monitoring
Biofilm and scale are invisible hazards that can quietly compromise your system — restricting flow, reducing heat transfer efficiency, and promoting microbial growth. At Hydrogreen, we provide both the advanced sensors and the expertise to detect and manage these issues early. Our biofilm and scaling sensors enable continuous monitoring and early warning, while our specialists turn that data into precise, proactive water treatment solutions.
HydroGreen integrates these advanced sensors into your water system monitoring programme – providing quantitative insight into when and where deposits form, so you can act before systems are compromised.
How does this Works
- Sensors are clamped externally to pipes, tanks, or bypass lines – causing no flow disruption or system modification
- They measure changes in heat transfer, which correlate directly to deposit thickness
- The system reports quantitative deposit data to a controller (controller or modular system) for on-site visualisation or remote monitoring
- The compact unit measures both biofilm and scale simultaneously – ideal for panel or bypass installation
What It Solves
- Biofilm formation inside pipes and tanks
- Mineral scaling and sediment build-up
- Energy loss due to deposits
- Hidden fouling not detected by standard water analysis
Key Benefits
- Continuous, real-time monitoring – no manual sampling needed
- Measures both biofilm and scale, separately or simultaneously
- Non-invasive installation, safe for any piping or tank layout
- Ideal for cooling water systems, heat exchangers, RO/UF installations, or research environments
- Enables data-driven dosing and system optimisation – reducing chemical dependency and maintenance
Best for:
- Recirculating cooling circuits in power, petrochemical, and industrial facilities
- RO and ultrafiltration feed and concentrate lines
- Pilot plants or R&D setups monitoring fouling development
- Industrial tanks or pipelines requiring early warning of deposit build-up
