TP26-20 Cooling Towers 2026: Where Sustainability Meets ProfitabilityFor decades, industrial cooling has been trapped in a paradox: Sustainability goals demand water and chemical reductions, while operations teams worry about cost and reliability. This paper demonstrates how facilities can resolve that paradox with non disruptive water treatment innovations that lower costs, improve efficiency, and align with Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) mandates. By combining proven case studies with Return on

many cooling tower structures are inspected on an ad-hoc basis after problem conditions are discovered

without increasing the scaling and biofouling potential seen inside the membranes

Sulfur dioxide and ferrous sulfate are the reducing agents that are commonly used

The induced draft wet cooling tower performance is highly affected due to recirculation of saturated exit air from the cooling tower

There has been a shift in industrial economic philosophy to risk-based maintenance
