There is no denying that the economic landscape has shifted in the past couple of years. An increased need for cold storage facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food prcoessing, warehousing and distribution has elevated the global demand for industrial refrigeration solutions. Moving forward, it is possible to safely and efficiently adopt CO₂ sytems while realizing benefits.

When a large national pizza company wanted to make a change in their ingredient chilling process, their engineers had more stringent requirements. The company’s goals were to ensure that its products were safe and of consistently high quality. 

Without proper filtration, process cooling water will become fouled and significantly less effective at cooling machinery. Here are five benefits of using automatic water filtration for process cooling water.

A digitalization system can provide information integrity for the cooling water system and the process plant. Developing a digital twin provides a tool that allows early detection and diagnosis of anomalies and proactive management of any excursion events.

I have attended several trade shows over the past 60 days that represent many processes in the Industrial heating and industrial cooling markets. The common themes we all are facing are supply chain, workforce and going “green.”

Those who provide the design, engineering and construction for refrigerated food facilities have begun to broaden their approach to consider the entire interconnected, interdependent cooling system.

Whatever type of active cooling system is in use at a refinery, they all have several things in common. One of them, however, is essential for safety and throughput.

Manufacturing processes and environmental control requirements in production plants often lead to the use of dehumidification as part of the overall system to remove excess water contained in products or from the ambient air.

In this podcast, Richard Beemsterboer, the sales director for heat transfer fluids at ORG Chem Group, joined editor Linda Becker to speak about reclaiming heat transfer fluids.

For one chemical manufacturer in North Carolina, after decades of replacing their metal towers with the same material, corrosion-resistant engineered-plastic cooling towers provided an alternative.
