Cooling solutions for the steel industry

In the steel industry, cooling technologies are essential for cooling and optimizing production processes. The cooling towers allow heat to dissipate by cooling large volumes of water in processes such as steel smelting and rolling. In addition, in steel plants where higher thermal precision is required, closed circuit coolers are used to manage heat in machinery cooling systems. These technologies help improve operational stability, reduce equipment wear, and contribute to more efficient and sustainable production, meeting current environmental requirements.

Examples of installation context

Steel mills, rolling mills and steel foundries.

Advantages

High cooling capacity, durability and resistance.

Recommended technologies

Evaporative cooling towers and closed-loop cooling towers

Description of the process

Cooling in the steel industry

  1. In the steel industry, the aluminum cooling process is carried out through a structured system.
    The full cycle of heating, casting, extrusion, and cooling lasts several hours. During this time,
    the cooling system must manage the generated heat to avoid overheating.
  2. Large-capacity water tanks are used to cool these processes. These tanks are divided into sections by gates that allow for sludge separation and hot water management. The first tank receives the hot water from the process, and the last one is where cold water is drawn from.
  3. The tower is used to reduce the water temperature before returning it to the casting pit.
    The tower water transfers the heat absorbed during the cooling process. The tower’s capacity must be sufficient to keep the water temperature below 30°C, ensuring the production cycle can be carried out continuously and efficiently.
  4. The cooling system must operate continuously to ensure that the water in the tanks remains at the appropriate temperature.

Our cooling solutions for the steel industry

Our cooling technologies are built based on precise calculations of the heat to be dissipated, considering the difference between the temperature of the molten material and the desired final temperature of the ingots. To ensure optimal cooling, our towers are designed to keep the water at controlled temperatures and avoid sudden increases in water temperature. In addition, we evaluate the choice of heat exchangers according to each customer’s needs.
