Plume Abatement Screens
Typically, evaporative cooling towers reject heat into the atmosphere in the form of warm saturated wet air; the larger the heat rejection the more water will be released into the environment. In the right conditions, this water vapour will form visible clouds above the cooling towers and may lead to dangerous icy conditions on the ground. Using manually operated rolling doors to vary the airflow into the cooling towers, Galebreaker has made it possible to increase the plume abatement effect seasonally. By combining industrial, rolling, engineered fabric screens with the PlumeLogic™ Plume Abatement Control System, Galebreaker can help you maintain the coldest possible water from your plume abated tower all year round, whilst still maintaining plume abatement. The system works by optimising the flow of air through the wet and dry sections of the cooling tower. This means that in any given ambient condition the maximum airflow possible is diverted through the wet, more efficient, section of the tower. Conversely, the system also ensures that plume abatement is maintained, but with the smallest airflow possible.
Plume abatement
Using manually operated screems to vary the airflow into the cooling towers, Galebreaker have made it is possible to increase the plume abatement effect of the cooling towers seasonally, so maximum plume abatement can be achieved in the winter and maximum evaporative performance can be achieved in the summer.
