Case Study: Google protects its data centers with Besco Commercial’s ultrapure water solution

Google protects $1.2 billion Lenoir data center with Besco Commercial reverse-osmosis water

Google, a multinational technology company, required precise humidity control for its massive data centers to prevent damage to its computer equipment from both excess moisture and static electricity. This process consumed billions of gallons of water annually, which needed to be highly purified to avoid mineral buildup and potential damage. Google turned to vendor Besco Commercial for a solution to supply this high-purity water.

Besco Commercial designed and implemented a custom reverse-osmosis water treatment system to supply ultrapure water for the data centers' ultrasonic humidifiers. This Besco solution ensured the effective application of fine mist for humidity control without causing mineral deposits or corrosion on the sensitive computer equipment, thereby helping to protect Google's high-performance global network.
