FAQs

The MeeFog nozzles produce droplets with an average size below 10 micrometers. For comparison, this is about one-tenth the diameter of a human hair. Smaller droplets have a larger surface-to-volume ratio, allowing them to evaporate much more rapidly than larger droplets, ensuring efficient cooling before the air enters the compressor.

The system helps reduce NOx emissions by up to 30% and reduces the amount of CO2 produced per kilowatt of power.

While specific timelines vary, case studies show rapid ROI. For example, Midland Cogeneration Venture installed six units and used the cash generated from the increased production to buy six more within a year.

Yes. While the power boost is more significant in dry climates, it remains economically significant even in very humid areas.

Our standard warranty is one year but we also offer extended warranties. MeeFog systems have a useful life of at least 30 years.

The system has a useful life of at least 30 years. Stainless steel nozzles have an indefinite lifespan when used with filtered, demineralized water

Stainless steel nozzles have an indefinite life span when used with filtered, demineralized water. Some systems have operated for more than thirty years.  An annual, visual inspection should be performed, and any nozzles that are not spraying properly, due to plugging or physical damage, should be replaced.  An annual visual inspection is needed, and any damaged or plugged nozzles should be replaced.

Efficiency can be improved by increasing the pressure ratio or firing temperature, or by decreasing compressor work. Combustors and hot-section components can be upgraded, but doing so is usually more expensive and less beneficial than adding inlet fogging or wet compression. 

Cooling the inlet air by 20 °F (11 °C) can increase output by 10% or more.
