Cooling Tower Blow Down Water Pipe Material

[shijinjprakash]

Hi - I have to route blow down water aprox 1000M Long through a pipe. It is advised to use SS , but this is very costly. Can we use any other alternative ? If SS can we use SS 304 ?

SS is not essential. You can use steel pipes with inside and outside protective coatings.

The water quality is the same as cooling tower water, and we normally use steel pipes with inside/outside coatings for cooling water pipes.
