Metso has launched its third-generation OKTOP cooling tower to address key customer challenges in demanding slurry and electrolyte cooling duties in metals refining.
Designed for reliability and performance, the new OKTOP cooling tower combines Metso's technology with a highly compact footprint ideal for brownfield installations, easy maintenance and rapid installation to deliver maximum value with simplified design, according to Metso. With low emissions, the solution is part of the Metso Plus offering.
"The third-generation OKTOP cooling tower is designed for maximum efficiency and minimized downtime and maintenance costs. It offers an installation footprint that is up to 70 percent smaller while maintaining superior cooling power compared to the previous generation," said Valter Mangs, product manager for cooling towers of Metso. "The improved design prevents the recirculation of warm off gas, ensuring optimal cooling efficiency and improved overall performance. In addition, as the world's first self-cleaning cooling tower, it ensures the longest operational intervals in the market."
