Cooling towers reject excess heat through evaporative water cooling — a principle used in industry for over 100 years. The review covers construction and operating cycle, four main types by air delivery method, key parameters (approximately 1% evaporation per 7 °C of cooling), and Legionella protection measures, including mandatory drain eliminator replacement per UNE 100030/2017.
Daikin Applied Germany has owned Ganter Kälte- und Wärmetechnik GmbH (27 employees, Stuttgart region) since October 2, 2026, expanding its capabilities in the design, installation, and maintenance of industrial cooling and heating systems. The acquisition aligns with Germany's Heat Supply Planning Act and the need to integrate heat pumps into district heating networks exceeding 35,000 km in total length.
MTA, part of Trane Technologies, has introduced modular chillers GEMINI N (cascade up to 750 kW) and packaged Aries N Deep Freezing (up to 360 kW, liquid temperature down to −30 °C) using propane R290. Aries N DF is positioned as a ready-made alternative to individually engineered NH3 and CO2 systems.
Arctic presents its evaporative cooling range — cooling pads, ducted coolers, and indirect-direct evaporative coolers — as a response to the common practice of sizing industrial cooling for average conditions rather than actual operational loads. The three product types differ in humidity impact, air-volume capacity, and installation complexity, and the company frames selection around three practical questions.
Adsorbus GmbH has introduced the heatChiller, a modular adsorption cooling system that converts waste heat at temperatures as low as 50 °C into chilled water at 6 °C. The unit covers cooling capacities from 10 kW to 3 MW and uses water (R718) as a zero-GWP refrigerant.
