Power Plants & Energy Industry
- Why CCCTs? Reduces water consumption compared to open towers in water-scarce regions.
- Applications:
- Gas turbine inlet air cooling (improves efficiency).
- Nuclear plant auxiliary cooling (corrosion-resistant materials).
- Geothermal power plants (handles high mineral content).
- Key Benefits:
- Dry mode operation possible (zero water use when ambient temps allow).
Hybrid designs cut water usage by 30-50% vs. open towers.
