Cooling towers are heat removal devices used to transfer process waste heat to the atmosphere. Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of water to remove process heat and cool the working fluid to near the wet-bulb air temperature or rely solely on air to cool the working fluid to near the dry-bulb air temperature. Common applications include cooling the circulating water used in oil refineries, chemical plants, power stations and building cooling. The towers vary in size from small roof-top units to very large hyperboloid structures that can be up to 200 metres tall and 100 metres in diameter, or rectangular structures that can be over 40 metres tall and 80 metres long. Smaller towers are normally factory-built, while larger ones are constructed on site.

Blood based on hemocyanin rather than hemoglobin. Hemocyanin is based on copper rather than iron, and as a result the blood is blue rather than red. Hemocyanin works more efficiently at cold temperatures than warm temperatures, unlike hemoglobin.
The octopus is a cool blooded creature, unlike lizards which are generally cold blooded, with exceptions such as the tegu, which is warm blooded during mating season.

Used sarcastically when a societal “norm” should not be considered normal. Usually a disturbing reality that people subconsciously shrug off as normal even though it is far from it.
