A multistage direct contact cooler is configured to cool process gases for downstream process requirements. The multistage direct contact cooler includes a high temperature stage and a low temperature stage. Cooling duties for the high temperature stage of the direct contact cooler are achieved by air cooling. Cooling duties for the low temperature stage of the direct contact cooler are achieved by evaporative cooling with an option to include additional air cooling to reduce evaporative losses.

An electrostatic precipitating apparatus for a cooling tower is provided. The precipitating apparatus include an electrostatic precipitator including a plurality of discharge electrodes to which a voltage is applied and a plurality of electrostatic precipitating electrodes each disposed between the discharge electrodes and grounded, a washing water supply spraying the washing water to the electrostatic precipitator, and a frame assembly supporting the electrostatic precipitator. The electrostatic precipitator includes a first setting beam having a plurality of lower slots into which the discharge electrodes are fixedly inserted, and the frame assembly includes a lower frame extending in a stacking direction of the discharge electrodes to support the first setting beam, via which a voltage is applied to the discharge electrode.

The present disclosure relates to a cooling tower having a fill media, water distribution system, plenum, and an ultraviolet (UV) light emitter. The water distribution system distributes water to the fill media. A flow of air passes through the fill media and past a flow of the water and out of the cooling tower via an outlet. The plenum is defined by a volume between the fill media and the outlet. The UV light emitter is disposed in the plenum and configured to inactivate or kill organisms in a drift.

A cooling apparatus for cooling a waterflow is provided. Cooling apparatus includes a first evaporative cooler adapted to cool the waterflow therethrough, a second evaporative cooler adapted to receive and cool the waterflow from the first evaporative cooler therethrough, wherein the second evaporative cooler is adapted to receive an airflow therethrough to cool the waterflow therethrough and the first evaporative cooler is adapted to receive the airflow therethrough from the second evaporative cooler to cool the waterflow therethrough, and a deflector adapted to deflect the waterflow from the first evaporative cooler to the second evaporative cooler and allow the airflow from the second evaporative cooler to the first evaporative cooler therethrough. A cooling method for cooling a waterflow is also provided.

A water distribution system with wide-range variable traffic includes a water distribution tank and at least two types of spray heads uniformly distributed on the bottom of the water distribution tank. Each spray head is provided with a spray pipe connected to the bottom of the water distribution tank. A water inlet is arranged on the upper part of each spray pipe, and a water outlet is arranged on the lower part of the spray pipe. The heights, by which water inlets of at least two types of spray heads are exposed out of the bottom of the water distribution tank, are different.
