Case Study: Paraguay

Amid a rapid rise in demand for high-density computing and increasing global pressure to develop sustainable digital infrastructure, data center operators seek solutions that provide exceptional performance, scalability, and environmental sustainability. A key challenge in this segment is delivering extreme rack densities without compromising uptime or consuming additional water resources, especially in hot climates.

One such project was delivered in Paraguay, where a 30MW data center designed for cryptocurrency workloads and future AI clusters was developed. DCX supported the operator by delivering a complete hydro liquid cooling system in an end-to-end deployment, enabling continuous high-density performance with zero water consumption. This project transformed the facility into one of the world’s first large-scale Net-Zero, AI-ready liquid-cooled data centers.

Challenge 

The operator required an infrastructure designed to reliably support power densities exceeding 200 kW per rack without any risk of thermal throttling, ensuring consistent computational performance under sustained high loads. The solution also needed to operate continuously, 24/7, in a humid subtropical climate, maintaining stability despite high ambient temperatures and elevated humidity levels.

Due to both sustainability objectives and logistical constraints, the system had to eliminate the use of evaporative cooling and avoid any process water consumption. At the same time, the infrastructure was expected to provide a clear and scalable growth path, enabling seamless adaptation to future increases in AI hardware density and power requirements.

DCX Solution

The system includes 12 closed-loop cooling circuits, each supporting 11 racks with space for up to 22 specialized servers per rack, engineered to operate continuously at extreme density levels exceeding 200 kW per rack. The entire cooling infrastructure was designed to maintain stable thermal conditions under full load, ensuring consistent inlet temperatures and preventing thermal throttling even during peak ambient conditions.

The system covers roughly 1,764 m² of data hall space, with all cooling components integrated smoothly into the existing building layout. DCX designed and installed dedicated manifold assemblies within each rack, ensuring uniform coolant distribution and steady flow to every server. Supply and return piping were installed above the floor for easier maintenance access and hygiene control.


In contrast, main return lines outside the facility were routed on elevated supports to enhance security and serviceability. Heat rejection is managed by high-performance dry coolers located directly next to the building, with a combined capacity of about 2.5 MW at a 35°C ambient temperature. This dry-cooler setup removes the need for evaporative or water-consuming systems, supporting fully water-free operation in a subtropical climate.

Heat reuse opportunities

Immersion cooling delivers efficient heat dissipation and enables full recovery of the heat produced. Give rest heat new life and reuse it to heat up your house, swimming pool, green house or an entire hotel. The possibilities are limitless.

Turn your Bitpod into a digital heat pump

Thanks to the built-in heat exchanger and pump, Bitpod captures heat generated by the miners and redirects it back to wherever you need it! Enjoy 40-50°C water to warm up your house, swimming pool or green house. You decide.

Precision cooling guaranteed by the Dry Cooler

The dry cooler rejects any surplus heat that cannot be absorbed by the pool or building, ensuring system stability. Meanwhile, the BitPod maximizes efficiency by redirecting recovered heat to where it’s needed—turning IT-generated heat into a valuable energy resource.
