Scientists from India's PSG College of Technology have developed a passive solar module cooling technology that utilizes a hygroscopic salt to harvest atmospheric water from the air. “The objective is ...

The measurements also showed that the solar module output increased by between 24.2% and 56.5%, The cooling technique was presented in the study “ A new approach to cooling photovoltaic panels: ...

Editor’s note: This is the first of a multi-part series by Brad Buecker, President of Buecker & Associates, LLC. Power and co-generation facilities have multiple cooling systems for various plant ...

Microbial inhibition, as part of a robust cooling water treatment program, presents a special challenge because of the variability in makeup water sources, plant processes, and discharge permits.

In previous parts of this series, we examined many issues related to primary cooling water treatment at power and industrial plants. However, most large plants have a number of closed water systems ...
