A cooling tower is an effective way to reduce thermal pollution because it takes the heat from the water and transfers it to the atmosphere. According to research , the cooling potential of a wet surface is much better due to less evaporative heat transferred into the surroundings.

What is thermal pollution a byproduct of?
Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of nuclear energy.Thermal pollution is a byproduct of the production of heat. A foundry, for example, produces much thermal pollution in the process of forging steel.
Measures for controlling thermal pollution?
Thermal pollution control helps measure the high temperatures caused by thermal discharges. Many measures are taken to control thermal pollution such as cooling towers, cooling ponds, spray ponds, and artificial lakes.
How can thermal pollution be caused by soil erosion?
Thermal pollution can be caused by soil erosion, as the sediments make the water muddy and thus increase light absorbency and thermal pollution
An increase in a body of water's temperature caused by adding warmer water is called?
Thermal Pollution.
In what sense is thermal pollution less-worrisome kind of pollution than most types of chemical pollution?
Thermal pollution can be a significant type of pollution as it can change th biota using a water body. This is especially a concern in smaller streams where the warm water can make up a significant fraction of the total flow. In large water bodies the warm water can dissipate or float on the top (it's density is less) until cooled. The thermal flux from sunlight can easily impact large shallow bodies of water as much as man-made thermal pollution. Thermal pollution is of less concern than chemical pollutants as it cannot bioaccumulate in the food chain. However, fish killed by thermal shock are just as dead as thos
What is thermal pollution a by product of?
nuclear energy
Does nuclear energy cause air pollution?
no nly thermal pollution
How do nuclear power plants contribute to thermal pollution?
Nuclear power plants do not cause thermal polution.
what- Thermal pollution is a byproduct of _____.?
Thermal pollution results when cooling water s used in any process that generates heat and the water is returned to a body of surface water without cooling. Thermal pollution can also result when a pond, lake or bay is allowed to silt up reducing the depth of water or the water flow. Ths would allow solar energy to heat the water.
How can you control thermal pollution?
# provide adequate cooling towers # channel thermal effluents #

What does nuclear energy do do the environment?
Very little, unless there is a major accident like at Chernobyl. Otherwise just some thermal pollution of a river or lake if used for cooling.
Control measures of thermal pollution?
Thermal pollution is the result of water that is warmer than the natural temperature of a waterway being released into it. Heating or cooling water to match the temperature of the waterway before it is released will help to resolve thermal pollution.
What kind of factories is a major cause of thermal pollution?
nuclear power plant
