Well, we’re just this Chinese company that makes cooling stuff, and we’ve been in it for ages. Every so often, the closed cooling towers and evaporative condensers do come up when they have to cool something all over A place like Uzbekistan. Well, they’re heavy textile producers. Cotton, fabrics, clothes- it’s a huge industry and so we ended up merging with a textile plant in Tashkent It’s a major operation. Dyed and finished fabrics for export Their cooling was a mess. Ours were closed cooling towers came to the rescue. We made it that much smoother for them.
It is not at all easy and convenient and a complete operation in itself from the harvesting of raw cotton to spinning it, weaving it in, and then dyeing the finished fabrics. Dyeing is a very hot process. Some vats boil, steam comes off, and chemicals are added. It is only through the most consistent cooling that good production can be widely varied by the machines. Improper cooling leads to color problems with the fabric and the fabric itself becomes patchy and hence the production problem further slows down. The Tashkent plant was bad. They had an old open cooling system, leaks for all kinds of communication, rust, and daily breakdowns. And how that system would try, Uzbekistan’s summers touched 35°C and its winters used to freeze; thus their system was not able to take up this much load. Another problem was the quality of the water as pollution in the dirty water influenced the proper dying of the textile that they were supplying to their clients in Russia and Turkey where most of them were complaining about the costs.
Procurement team informed us Flew to Tashkent We toured the plant. Chaos Dyeing machines overheating Water pumps failing. 5% was uneven dyeing of their fabric batches. Orders for export. Slipping. We proposed our CT-450 closed cooling towers. 450 kW per unit. Stainless steel for long life Closed loop so water stays clean Smart controls to deal with temperature swings They ran the numbers. Liked what they saw. Signed on.
Three CT-450 closed circuit cooling towers were installed. These cooling towers are used for cooling dyeing vats and finishing machines. We recommended a glycol-water mix for the safety of textile processes. We also suggested VFD fans to decrease energy use. And finally, an automated PLC system with your control room.
Installation happened during a maintenance break. Didn’t want to halt their dyeing lines. Took 12 days. Our crew trained their workers. Showed them how to check valves, monitor temps, clean filters. Uzbekistan’s water’s full of sediments. Clogs systems fast. We added a filtration unit. Kept the towers clear. No blockages.
Some Hiccups
Uzbekistan’s climate is wild. Scorching summers, icy winters. Towers had to handle both. We adjusted the glycol mix for freezing temps. Kept things flowing. Power supply was spotty. Tashkent’s grid has outages. We installed backup relays. Towers stayed online. The plant’s old plumbing was a headache. Pipes were corroded. We replaced some sections. Took extra days. Plant supervisor, Mr. Rustam, was patient. Kept saying, “Do it properly.” We did.
Mr. Rustam’s View
Mr. Rustam’s been running the Tashkent plant for 12 years. Knows textiles backward and forward. We caught up six months after the install. Here’s what he said:
“Our old cooling system was a disaster. Leaks, rust, always down. Dirty water ruined our dyes. Your closed cooling towers? Big upgrade. Energy costs dropped 22%. Fans adjust to the weather, don’t waste power. Dyeing vats stay steady at 60°C. No more patchy fabrics. We used to scrap 5% of our batches. Now? Less than 1%. Russia’s happy, Turkey’s ordering more. Maintenance is simple. No rust, no clogs. My guys check the system once a month. That’s it. We’re dyeing 15% more fabric daily. Exports are up. Your towers work. Money well spent.”
The Difference
Mr. Rustam’s got the numbers to prove it. Energy use is down. VFD fans cut power by over a fifth. Water costs dropped 20%. Closed-loop towers use less water. No contamination. Textile dyes are sensitive. Dirty water screws up colors. Our towers keep it pure. Production’s up 15%. They’re churning out more fabric daily. No dyeing delays. They’re meeting Russia’s quality standards. Turkey’s too. That’s huge for exports. Uzbekistan’s textile market is cutthroat. This plant’s got an edge now.
The stainless steel’s tough. Tashkent’s dusty air and hard water wreck equipment. Our towers? Holding strong. The PLC system’s a game-changer. Real-time data on temps, pressure, flow. Flags issues before they’re problems. Less downtime. Mr. Rustam’s team likes it. They’re not tech experts, but they manage. We left manuals in Uzbek and Russian. Did a follow-up visit. Everything’s solid.
Why It Fits Uzbekistan
Textiles are massive in Uzbekistan. Cotton’s a cash cow. Plants like this one in Tashkent dye and finish for global markets. Need cooling that can take the heat, the cold, the dusty air. Our closed cooling towers deliver. Save energy, keep water clean, ensure quality. Uzbekistan’s pushing exports hard. Russia, Turkey, Asia—they want flawless fabrics. Our tech helps plants like Mr. Rustam’s compete. More output, better quality, lower costs.
This job’s a good one. Mr. Rustam’s pleased. His workers are too. We’re happy with the result. Shows our towers can tackle tough jobs. Textiles are just part of it. Uzbekistan’s got mining, chemicals, more. All need cooling. We’ve got the gear for it.
