Cooling Systems | Odor and Dust Control

Water is a unique and incredibly diverse resource. It is the only substance on the planet that has the ability to naturally exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas. Consequently, water has varying properties depending on the state it is in.

As a liquid, water has the ability to absorb and be absorbed by other compounds. If properly dispersed in large quantities, water droplets can absorb individual dust and odor particles and completely remove them from the air in a process known as adhesion. This allows water to be used as a truly effective method of dust and odor control.

When water evaporates to a gas, changes to the physical properties take place. The flash evaporation of the liquid to a gas absorbs energy from the air in the form of heat which results in significant reductions in the ambient temperature. Because water has the ability to absorb more heat for each degree of temperature reduction then most other substances, water evaporation can be an ideal method of outdoor cooling.

When water is evaporated and the air exchange is limited, the relative humidity will increase. By controlling the amount of moisture and the air flow, any relative humidity level can be artificially created an precisely maintained.

Once the air becomes saturated and can no longer absorb additional moisture, 100% humidity is achieved and the water will stay in its liquid state. Micron sized droplets of water will suspend themselves in the air creating a natural fog effect. When properly applied, this saturation point is used to create unique and dramatic landscape special effects.

These unique properties of water can be very useful. When water is atomized into tiny micron sized droplets and effectively dispersed into the air, the properties are magnified.

Fogco’s specialty designed systems utilize customized high pressure pumps, fittings, and components to take advantage of these natural properties of water and create solutions for many different industrial, commercial, and agricultural applications. Our experienced design staff can help you find the most appropriate solution utilizing the power of fog and the natural properties of water.
