Wet/Dry (Hybrid) Cooling
B&W SPIG environmentally friendly wet/dry (hybrid) cooling towers are the optimal solution for plume abatement and water saving.
Hybrid cooling towers are specifically designed to avoid visible plume in cold, humid ambient conditions and when local constraints require this technology, such as at airports, residential areas, etc.
The main advantages are no plume visibility, cost effectiveness and high performance.
B&W SPIG’s hybrid technology avoids environmental impact by coupling the
wet cooling tower with a dry section (heat exchangers). The dry sections are basically conventional air-cooled heat exchangers located in the upper part of the structure above the drift eliminators. The tube bundle designs are commonly triangular pitch with fins.
