Exploring Green Azole Alternatives for Copper Corrosion Inhibition in Cooling Towers

The project aims to identify eco-friendly organic molecules to be used as copper corrosion inhibitors for water
cooling towers, which are crucial for heat management in facilities like hospitals and factories. Currently, toxic
nonenvironmentaly- friendly chemicals are used to manage corrosion in water cooling towers, which pose
environmental risks. The intern will collaborate with TGWT, a company specializing in green water treatment
solutions, to research and test green alternatives that are biodegradable and non-toxic. This solution aims to
improve environmental sustainability while maintaining performance, reducing costs, and ensuring safety in
industrial cooling systems.
