TP26-07 Lidar and High-Resolution Imaging for Evaluating Agng Cooling Towers Testing

TP26-07 Lidar and High-Resolution Imaging for Evaluating Agng Cooling Towers TestingAging cooling towers present unique challenges for inspection and maintenance, often due to limited access, outdated documentation, and structural degradation. This presentation highlights the use of laser scanning (LiDAR) and high resolution 360 degree imaging as powerful tools for non invasive evaluation. LiDAR enables precise capture of as built conditions, including structural and mechanical systems, while supporting the detection of tower

They also represent a significant environmental liability because of the relatively high inorganic phosphate content which contributes to eutrophication of water supplies
