while you're waiting for the USS Nimitz Twelve years ago four Aqua-Chem flash evaporators launched a new era in seawater desalting. Installed on the USS Independence, they were the first large marine units. They eliminated any need for feed treatment... for brine density control... fine spray nozzles ... scale removal. All good reasons why Aqua-Chem flash evaporators also serve the Kitty Hawk, Constellation, Enterprise and John F. Kennedy. And why we're now building four 100,000-gpd units for the USS Nimitz. Aqua-Chem's Davis Engineering Division is also aboard these carriers. In fact, most carriers built today take to sea with Davis fuel oil heaters, condensers, lube oil heaters, electronic equipment coolers and feedwater heaters.
