ChemTreat, a Veralto company and leader in industrial water treatment, has launched CTSolutions® D2C — a treatment and monitoring program designed for direct-to-chip (D2C) liquid cooling systems in high-density, AI-driven data centers.

The rollout comes as surging demand from AI, High Performance Computing (HPC), and other next-gen workloads pushes cooling systems to their limits, requiring higher levels of reliability and control.

“This launch is about readiness and risk reduction at scale,” said Jacob Paugh, Director of Commercial and Institutional Business at ChemTreat. “D2C systems require more than chemistry, they need continuous monitoring, system cleanliness, and a preventive mindset. CTSolutions® D2C is designed to support these needs from pre-commissioning through full operation.”

Unlike traditional cooling loops, D2C systems are closed and highly sensitive to water chemistry, particulate control, and fluid stability. Poor treatment can lead to fouling, corrosion, and thermal inefficiency, potentially causing CPU throttling, server shutdowns, and costly maintenance.

With CTVista®+, operators can access advanced analytics, system alerts, and trend tools for proactive maintenance and decision-making. The program is designed for both new builds and hyperscale expansions, with ChemTreat teams working alongside engineers to ensure system integrity before servers go live.

Sustainability is also a key focus. In 2024, ChemTreat helped customers save over 85 billion gallons of water. The D2C program supports improved power usage effectiveness (PUE) and water usage effectiveness (WUE), particularly in regions facing water or grid constraints.

“Our CTSolutions® D2C package is more than a product, it’s a partnership,” said Paugh. “We’re bringing together our best-in-class aqueous coolant technologies, rapid monitoring tools, and decades of field expertise to help data centers operate more efficiently and reliably from day one.”
