Heat Exchangers: Cooling Towers
In many industrial facilities, various pieces of equipment and fluids used in process systems need to be cooled. Disposing of or discharging hot water into lakes or rivers can lead to thermal pollution, and water that is discharged must be replaced. For these reasons, it’s often more efficient to cool the hot water with a cooling tower and reuse it. This interactive online course will introduce you to cooling tower systems and a couple of types of cooling towers, and you will see how a typical cooling tower is operated. You will also look at how chemistry is involved with maintaining a cooling tower.
