Bacteria settle among any structure (pipelines, tanks, machinery) in contact with the water in a very short time, if appropriate preventative measurements are not applied. The ALVIM real-time, on line, Biofilm Monitoring System is able to detect bacterial settlement since its first phases (down to 1% of surface covered by micro-organisms such as Legionella pneumophila) and, based on these data, manually or automatically adjust and optimize cleaning treatments / biocide treatments. This way keeping biofilm growth under control.
