Skid mounted systems typically include; dosing pumps, mix tanks, agitators and local control panels, complete with all piping and wiring. Applications for chemical dosing systems include: boiler chemicals, cooling water chemicals, process additives and water/waste treatment areas.

One of GCS's largest markets is Electrical Generation Stations due to the critical control of chemical additives. Automatic control can be offered based on many different parameters and project specific requirements. PID control, effluent monitoring, and batch analysis are some of the parameters that are considered when controlling the chemical feed process.
