70-03: Trends in Thermal Pollution Control Requirements Cleaning SystemsThe guidelines of equal treatment for various beneficial uses would appear to be simple, but they generally have not been followed. When the water quality standards setting exercises began, the states tended to set standards that favored existing uses, and particularly industry. The propagation of fish and wildlife was a secondary factor. Today, the pendulum has swung completely in the other direction. One often gets the impression that the

Matrai Power Plant in Hungary decided in 1990 to replace all former "solutions" with one "Quality Set" for the different performances

Two fan testing methods - one for wet cooling towers and one for air cooled heat exchangers - will be discussed in detail as well as examples given of actual performance versus predicted performance
