During the construction of a new production line in 2012, Almeco was closely involved with the development of process cooling. In 2013 we supplied an open cooling tower for cooling 120 m³/hour from 47.9°C to 28.3°C at a wet bulb temperature of 20 °C (discharged cooling capacity 2,734 kW).
An oil refinery from the Port of Antwerp asked us if it would be possible to adapt their counterflow cooling tower with axial suction fans so it could still cool the same water flow rate, but to a lower cold water temperature. The cooling tower consists of six cells.
One of the longest indoor karting tracks in the world is located in the industrial park of Eupen. Since safety is their top priority, Karting Eupen was looking for an efficient ventilation system to prevent CO-poisoning by exhaust gases.
Almeco has provided Flanders’ Bike Valley with 4 fans diameter 1800mm and an available power of 180kW. The fans are part of a wind tunnel that is used for the testing of bicycles.
We were asked by a Rotterdam vegetable oil refinery to replace a fan of a Polacel cooling tower. The existing fan was a 14-foot fan with aluminium blades.
Our client realizes custom-made containers. These containers contain an electric generator that is driven by a diesel engine. The cooling of the container is crucial for the proper functioning of the machines. Therefore, the manufacturer relied on Almeco for the supply of two fans of type AVK1000 in Atex execution.
Voor een chemiebedrijf, producent van o.a. polymeren, met afdelingen over heel de wereld hebben we een koeltoren geleverd voor de site in Westerlo-Oevel. Deze koeltoren is ter vervanging van een oude BAC koeltoren.
One of our clients, active on the market of industrial warehouses, manufactures custom shelves from sheet metal. Irritating vapors are released during the cleaning and coating process.
A French study center consulted Almeco for the development of a ventilation system for tanks. The fans are used for the extraction of gas that is produced by detonation tests.
To suffice with regard to strict legislation, a Brussels waste processing and energy company asked for a solution for the separation of droplets from the air blown out of its degasser.
