The demand for energy efficient buildings and more stringent environmental sustainability requirements in the process industry have increased in recent years. As a consequence, the comfort and industrial cooling industry needed to be considerably dynamic in replying to the changing market demand. Evaporative cooling combines high thermal efficiency and cost effectiveness by achieving low cooling temperatures with minimum energy and water usage. Low cooling temperatures are essential for many processes to achieve high system efficiency. These processes consume less energy, and, in this way, evaporative cooling contributes to preserving natural resources and the environment. This first-ever European Evaporative Cooling Industry Monograph is available for download in English.
