Cell Cooling Tower Efficient cooling solution for large industrial plants

Cell cooling towers, also known as field-mounted cooling towers, are a highly efficient cooling solution for large industrial plants. These cooling towers are characterised by their ability to handle large volumes of water, and they offer numerous advantages over conventional cooling systems.

Properties of Cell Cooling Towers

Cell cooling towers are specially designed for large industrial plants that require cooling with a high flow rate. They can process volumes of water between 500 and 10,000 m³/h, making them ideal for power plants, oil refineries and large production plants.

One of the most important features of these cooling towers is their open circuit. This means that the cooling process is carried out by evaporative cooling. In this process, heat is removed by evaporating some of the water to be cooled. This process is particularly energy efficient and helps to reduce operating costs.

Cell cooling towers are also characterised by their adaptability. Since they are built directly on site, they can be fully adapted to the specific requirements of each project and customer. This enables them to be seamlessly integrated into existing infrastructures and ensures optimal performance.

Another important feature is their robust construction. Cell cooling towers are designed to work reliably even in harsh conditions. This makes them particularly suitable for use in corrosive and aggressive water environments, as found in many industrial applications.

Advantages of Cell Cooling Towers

Cell cooling towers offer several significant advantages over other types of cooling towers:

Energy Efficiency

By using evaporative cooling, cell cooling towers consume less energy than other cooling methods. This not only results in lower operating costs, but also helps to reduce the environmental footprint of industrial plants.

High Capacity

Cell cooling towers can handle very large volumes of water. This makes them particularly suitable for applications with high cooling requirements, such as those often found in the process industry.

Adaptability

Unlike prefabricated cooling towers, cell cooling towers can be fully customised to the specific requirements of each project. This ensures optimal performance and maximises the efficiency and effectiveness of the cooling.

Robustness

Cell cooling towers are designed for operation in harsh conditions. Their robust construction makes them particularly suitable for corrosive and aggressive water environments.

Flexible Assembly

Because cell cooling towers are field assembled, they can be integrated more easily into existing structures. This minimises interruptions to production and reduces the costs associated with transporting large components.

Longevity

When properly maintained, cell cooling towers have a long service life, making them a cost-effective solution in the long term.

No Corrosion

Modern cell cooling towers are often made of corrosion-resistant materials, which extends their service life and reduces maintenance costs.

Fast Availability and Short Assembly Times

Despite their size, cell cooling towers can be assembled relatively quickly, which results in reduced downtime.
In summary, cell cooling towers are a highly efficient and adaptable solution for industrial cooling. Their ability to handle large volumes of water, combined with their energy efficiency and robustness, makes them the preferred choice for many industrial applications. The ability to customise each tower to the specific requirements of a project ensures optimal performance and efficiency.
While the initial investment for a cell cooling tower may be higher than for other cooling tower types, the long-term advantages in terms of energy savings, performance and durability make them an economically sensible choice for many industrial plants. With the increasing focus on energy efficiency and sustainability in industry, cell cooling towers are likely to continue to play an important role in industrial cooling in the future.
