Home / About Cooling Tower
Cooling towers play a crucial role in removing excess heat from industrial processes by using the natural principle of evaporation.
Water is one of the most effective heat transfer mediums. The heat absorbed by circulating water from process equipment is released into the atmosphere through the cooling tower.
Cooling towers operate using the natural principle of heat dissipation through partial evaporation. The removed heat is known as the latent heat of evaporation.
