Updated Engineering Guide for cooling tower projects Now downloadable from our website, the new Wacon Engineering guide. Get familar with the concepts along which we engineer our projects. The guide was composed by our Technical Director Henk Janssen and edited by freelance engineering copywriter Wayne McLaughlin and provides a unique insight in the thoughts behind the...Continue Reading
Air conditioning cooling for cleanrooms – Fresenius Medical Care Fresenius Medical Care needed cooling for their air conditioning (AC) plant for the climate control in the clean rooms where medical disposables are manufactured. Scope of supply: 5 sets WCN special designed super-low-noise cooling towers in stainless steel and glass fiber reinforced plastic. Fan Diameter: 5500 mm...Continue Reading
The towers cool waste water effluent direct for further processing. Scope of supply: 3 x 6 sets WCN special designed super-low-noise cooling towers in stainless steel AISI 316. CentraFill non-clogging type infill is used to handle the contaminated and Ca+ rich water. The towers are designed with demountable tops to replace he infill...Continue Reading
K+S KALI GmbH, previously known as Kali & Salz GmbH, needed a cooling solution for brine from their salt mine. Corrosion and crystallization were the major challenges. The towers cool a 250 m3/h (1100 gpm) brine solution coming with 50+ Celsius (125+ Fahrenheit) from an underground mining level on 1100 meter (3600 feet)...Continue Reading
Cargill Nederland B.V.’s plant for refined oils in Europe needed a new cooling system. Our cooling system is used to reject waste heat from the first stage centrifuge processes. The cooling water is generally contaminated with waste edible oil. Scope of supply: 6 (3+2+1) sets super-low-noise cooling towers in stainless steel and glass fiber...Continue Reading
The towers transfer waste heat from the local power generation system, to be used in large scale (30.000 m2 / 300.000 sqf ) green house projects. Scope of supply: 4 sets WCN special designed super-low-noise cooling towers in stainless steel and glass fiber reinforced plastic.Continue Reading
The towers serve the local power generation plant and replace 10+ year old wooden towers which lost performance. Scope of supply: 3 sets WCN special designed super-low-noise cooling towers. Structure in stainless steel and glass fiber reinforced plastic with an open water distribution. Fan Diameter 6000 mm Motor + Gear Drive 45 kW Capacity...Continue Reading
The towers do serve the high efficient air conditioning system (HVAC) for the manufacturing of medication in clean room environment. Scope of supply: 2 x 3 sets WXN special designed super-low-noise cross flow cooling towers in stainless steel AISI 316 and glass fiber reinforced plastic. Super Low Noise application with SX fans.
