LINEAGE LOGISTICS - MCDONOUGH Cooling Tower | McDonough, Georgia

LINEAGE LOGISTICS - MCDONOUGH is a cooling tower facility located at 200 King Mill Road in McDonough, Georgia, United States. It serves a logistics and warehousing operation classified under NAICS 493120, providing essential temperature regulation for stored goods. The facility is operational and situated in Henry County, within the Atlanta metropolitan area. As a cooling tower in the United States, this facility operates under federal and state environmental regulations, including the Clean Air Act and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) standards for refrigeration safety. The U.S. has implemented the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, phasing down high-global-warming-potential refrigerants. Typical cooling towers in this region use evaporative cooling, which can have significant water consumption, but air-cooled alternatives are also common. The facility's role in maintaining precise temperatures is critical for the integrity of temperature-sensitive goods in the logistics supply chain. Its location in McDonough, a growing industrial hub, underscores its importance to regional commerce. The operational efficiency and refrigerant management of this cooling tower contribute to its environmental footprint, aligning with broader industry trends toward sustainability.

Cooling towers in the United States, such as this one, often use evaporative cooling, which consumes significant water and can lead to thermal pollution if not managed properly. The facility's refrigerant choice impacts global warming potential, as older refrigerants like CFCs and HCFCs are being phased out under the Kigali Amendment. Operational efficiency, measured by coefficient of performance (COP), determines energy consumption and associated emissions. Local water availability and heat island effects in the Atlanta region further influence environmental considerations.
