This is a lot of foam.....

We use seawater as a coolant.
In wintertime when the temperature of the seawater drops below 4 Degrees Centigrade the efficiency of the condensor decreases so we have to raise the temperature of the coolingwater to about 7 degrees before it enters the condesortubing.
We achieve this increase in temperature by circulating the outlet of the coolingwater of one running unit and bring it back to the inlet where it is devided between the units.
So the mixing of the water causes it to foam.
We use a anti foam agent to reduce the foam (biodegredable) but that is out of stock....

So we have to be careful because it's slippery out there!
