Overview
CARLYLE COMPRESSOR REMANUFACTURING operates a cooling tower in Stone Mountain, Georgia, supporting industrial manufacturing processes. The facility is located in DeKalb County and serves sectors including air-conditioning and industrial machinery.
CARLYLE COMPRESSOR REMANUFACTURING is a cooling tower facility located at 1440 Rock Mountain Blvd in Stone Mountain, Georgia, United States. The plant is operational and serves the remanufacturing of compressors, falling under NAICS codes 332999 (All Other Miscellaneous Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing), 333415 (Air-Conditioning and Warm Air Heating Equipment and Commercial and Industrial Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing), and 333912 (Air and Gas Compressor Manufacturing). As a cooling tower, it provides essential heat rejection for industrial processes. The facility operates under U.S. environmental regulations, including the Clean Air Act and EPA's Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program, which govern refrigerant use and emissions. Cooling towers in this region typically use water as the cooling medium, with potential for evaporative losses. Given its industrial context, it likely supports medium to large-scale operations. Cooling towers play a critical role in maintaining operational efficiency for industrial facilities. In Georgia's humid subtropical climate, water consumption and drift management are key environmental considerations. The facility's location in an industrial area near Stone Mountain underscores its role in supporting local manufacturing and remanufacturing activities.
Environmental context
Cooling towers like this one use evaporative cooling, which consumes water and can lead to drift losses. In Georgia's climate, water availability and thermal discharge are important environmental factors. Refrigerant use in associated equipment may be subject to EPA regulations under the Clean Air Act, including leak repair requirements and phase-down of high-GWP refrigerants. The facility's environmental impact depends on its water source, treatment, and any refrigerant management practices.
Frequently asked questions
The facility is located at 1440 Rock Mountain Blvd, Stone Mountain, Georgia 30083, United States, in DeKalb County.
It operates a cooling tower that provides heat rejection for the remanufacturing of compressors, supporting industries such as air-conditioning equipment and industrial machinery manufacturing.
The specific capacity is not publicly listed, but cooling towers for industrial remanufacturing typically range from 500 to 2000 tons of refrigeration.
Cooling towers are regulated under the Clean Air Act for refrigerant emissions, the Clean Water Act for thermal discharge and water use, and EPA's SNAP program for refrigerant management. State and local regulations may also apply.
Water consumption varies based on design and climate. Evaporative cooling towers typically consume about 1.8 gallons of water per ton-hour of cooling, though this can be reduced with water treatment and recirculation.
