Even in the best of economic times, businesses have to maximize efficiencies and cut waste. These tasks take on even greater importance during an economic slowdown.
When it comes to heavy industrial operations, large cooling towers — often the size of multi-story buildings — are required to cool processes and keep high temperatures in check.
When Frostburg State University (FSU) had to replace a failing metal clad cooling tower, the school’s engineering team considered two options: a new air-cooled system or the purchase of another metal-clad cooling tower. Neither seemed an appealing option to replace the rusted-out unit they were struggling to maintain.
A large containerboard mill located in southern Mississippi needed to replace the cooling tower used for its electrical rooms, along with an additional tower that supplied comfort air to the building’s offices. Both were the classic metal-clad design framed with wood and were beginning to disintegrate.
