Drift Eliminators Used In Cooling Towers

by

To understand how cooling tower drift eliminators work, it is of great importance to first understand what cooling towers fundamentally are.

Basically cooling towers as the name suggests are an integral part of large scale industrial cooling systems.

Basically, it is used as a heat removal device, which works on the basic principle of evaporation. Their main purpose compromises of reducing the water temperature used in industrial cooling operations. [Read more…] about Drift Eliminators Used In Cooling Towers
