Cooling towers: components Main cooling towers parts are found in both open and closed circuit cooling equipments. Structure Containment and support structure can be made of metal, glass fibre reinforced polyester GRP or both. In the case of large, field erected cooling towers, FECT or hyperbolic type, concrete is also Read more…
The Basque Hydrogen Corridor The Basque Hydrogen Corridor BH2C is a project that aims to create a “hydrogen ecosystem” in the Basque Country that will enable progress to be made in the decarbonisation of the energy, industrial, residential and mobility sectors. The idea was initially born from the decision of Read more…
When we deal with industrial cooling, or even refrigeration for air conditioning or HVAC, sometimes it is send the message that an adiabatic cooler can replace an evaporative cooling tower in function and performance, because of a range of “one-way” advantages toward adiabatic system. We are going to clarify that Read more…
Cooling for fatty acids destilled from olive pomace THE CHALLENGE The case is framed in oil waste extracting plants that plays a major role in oil industry. Only 20% of olive milling in the mills is virgin olive oil, the remaining 80% is wet fatty pomace or “alpeorujo” that is Read more…
Cooling tower revamping in an oil refinery THE CHALLENGE This challenge takes us to one of the largest oil refineries in the province of Granada, Spain. Cooling towers are often the big forgotten in industrial plants. They are equipment that usually require little maintenance that is limited to an occasionally Read more…
FOLIVE: first virtual olive oil fair FOLIVE, the 1st Olive Oil Industry Virtual Fair is held on the 17th of March 2021. This event brings together the leading companies in oil industry. An opportunity to stay up-to-date on the latest trends and technological solutions applied to the olive sector, attend Read more…
Fill: a cooling towers key element The filling is the operational heart of a cooling tower. The air-water countercurrent contact occurs through it causing water cooling by evaporation of a small part of it. That is why we must pay special attention to the selection in order to get a Read more…
Evaporative cooling as an alternative technology in reducing CO2 emissions Under the global warming caused by emissions of CO2 and fluorinated gases used in the production of cold, the UN predicts an increase from the 3,600 million existing refrigeration equipments to 14,000 unids in the year 2050. This is stated Read more…
Evaporative, dry, adiabatic and mechanical systems The selection of the industrial or civil cooling system must be made considering some fundamental factors. In particular, both the required operating temperatures and those related to the environmental conditions of the installation site must be taken into account. These two key factors will Read more…
Cooling tower retrofit: cooling capacity increased THE CHALLENGE We are requested by Gases Oxinorte A.I.E, company that produces air gases, to increase the cooling capacity in its nitrogen liquefaction facility in Vizcaya. Brief description of Oxinorte: In the air separation unit (ASU) its components are fractionated by cryogenic distillation, obtaining Read more…
