Chemical antiscalant dosing manages dissolved minerals in solution, but it doesn't remove the 0.1-10 micron silt/sand particles that heterogeneous nucleation uses as a physical scale seed on heat-transfer surfaces — those particles keep entering the loop and keep providing new nucleation sites even when the chemical dosing is correct.
Most cooling tower scale programs treat the water chemistry and stop there. But scale needs a physical nucleation seed to form on a heat-transfer surface, so if the particles that provide that seed are never removed, dosing antiscalant is fighting the symptom instead of the mechanism — a physical complement to chemical dosing, not a replacement for it.
