19-02: A Reclaim Water for Cooling Tower Makeup; not as Simple as Perceived History of Cooling Towers Scope of this paper is

Scope of this paper is to share the main features of the 38 ft test rig erected in summer 2018 at Cofimco’s facility in Italy

particularly the fire-retardant grades

The effort includes the construction of a laboratory-scale fill test facility and testing of promising counter flow and cross flow fill configurations for thermal and hydraulic performance at both laboratory scale and full scale

The goal of this study is to demonstrate that worthwhile flow determinationsrequire a system design having suitable measurement access locations with adequate piping runs

19-02: A Reclaim Water for Cooling Tower Makeup; not as Simple as Perceived History of Cooling Towers Scope of this paper isGrowing emphasis, and rightly so, is being placed on water recovery and reuse to help sustain our planets water supplies. By choice or mandate, design engineers for many new industrial plants are selecting alternatives to fresh water for plant makeup, with an increasingly common choice being effluent from a publicly owned treatment works (POTW). These waters go by various names including reclaim water, grey water, purple pipe water, and so forth.
