Concrete Cooling Towers in Saudi Arabia

Concrete Cooling Towers:

Concrete cooling towers can be precast or cast in situ. In order to reduce the erection time, in case of stringent time frame and to facilitate the standardization the use of prefabricated elements is preferred. Tailor made Concrete Cooling Towers designed for harsh environment are durable and properly studied to meet projects requirements.
Concrete cooling towers are constructed of RCC outer structure. this Cooling Towers are permanent structures in the industry and find a place where the water requirement is of very high capacities for e.g. in huge fertilizer plants, power plants etc. The internal fill pack material may be of PVC, Wooden Splash, HDPE etc. In addition these Cooling Towers come in various shapes. Our services range from complete designing to testing and commissioning of Concrete cooling towers.

Process:

Concrete cooling towers has a passive Iron Oxide film on the surface. However, Chloride ions from raw/ hard water or seawater make the film permeable, the passivity is destroyed and corrosion can proceed. The rate of corrosion then depends upon the availability of moisture and Oxygen at the surface of the steel, both of which are abundantly available in a cooling tower.
In high quality of this cooling towers the transport of gases and ions is a slow process. However it is much faster through an interconnected network of micro cracks and capillary voids by capillary action. Such a network of micro cracks already exists in reinforced concrete and the widening of cracks in service (by thermal and humidity changes) precede the corrosion process. As soon as the Chloride ions reach the rebar, one has the powerful anodize-catholic potential, and with free moisture abundantly available corrosion will proceed.
