Cooling towers on power stations - why?

Hi All


I was working on a power station in Oman last month and it was gas fired with condensing steam turbines - no evaporation.  This week I'm working on a coal fired one in Poland, which has cooling towers and evaporation.  Is it something to do with the gas or just that they have no water in Oman?


Thanks

  • I'm differentiating between denial and scepticism.  Here I regard denial as an unjustified certainty.  My nephew "knows" that climate change is "pseudo science", because he watched a Youtube video.  I tried to get him to do some reading that I recommended to get him in a discussion, but he found it too much hard work.
