Abstract: The present invention relates to an IoT-enabled cooling tower water management system configured to provide intelligent monitoring, analysis, and control of cooling tower operations. The system comprises multiple sensors for measuring water quality, thermal conditions, flow characteristics, energy consumption, and equipment health parameters. An edge processing controller receives sensor data and communicates with cloud-based analytics platforms through secure communication networks. Machine learning algorithms perform predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, operational optimization, and water treatment management. Automated control mechanisms regulate chemical dosing systems, blowdown valves, make-up water supply units, cooling fans, and circulation pumps based on analytical outcomes. The system provides real-time dashboards, remote monitoring capabilities, automated alerts, and performance reporting through web and mobile interfaces. The invention significantly reduces water consumption, minimizes chemical usage, improves cooling efficiency, prevents scaling and corrosion, enhances equipment reliability, and supports sustainable operation of industrial cooling tower installations.
