Q & A > Question Details
Currently we have issues in our naptha cracker plant where our production is limited due to cooling water temperature. Since it is monsoon season, the cooling tower is not able to cool the water effectively. What are the alternative solutions or modifications that can be done to increase efficiency of cooling tower?

There are no easy answers to this problem. The only solutions that I know is provide extra heat exchange surface in key cooling water services.
