Chiller efficiency represents a critical factor in assessing a cooling system’s performance as well as every chiller plant’s overall sustainability in both environmental and economic terms.

As new environmental concerns and regulations appear, the ammonia chillerstands out among the many ways both science and the industry are looking to implement new strategies for cooling.

The potential of heat pumps for heating and cooling is increasingly understood and employed. The well-designed industrial heat pump has proven to be highly energy-efficient systems (providing up to three times more heat energy than the energy they consume). As a result, this piece of equipment is mo[..]

The combined cycle gas turbine has gained recent popularity as a reliable, efficient, and environmentally-friendly solution for electricity generation.

From power generation to refrigeration systems, the centrifugal compressor is living a golden age as a piece of equipment. In a context in which achieving the maximum efficiency has become a much sought-after target, the centrifugal compressor has become a key component of many systems. Here’s a loo[..]

The words District Heating Networks have become common in conversations about the urban energy transition. In fact, a multitude of initiatives on a global scale have gone beyond simply talking, putting the potential of District Heating Networks to work.

Magnetic bearings are playing an increasingly important role in the development of sophisticated and efficient compressors.

The heating industry stands at a threshold as climate emergency concerns arise and energy scarcity threatens to become an energy crisis. With a marked significance in its contributions to carbon emissions, leading agents in the heating sector have made it their goal to move away from fossil fuels.

We frequently use ammonia refrigeration systems for very large cooling applications, such as Industrial Refrigeration. Chillers using ammonia are becoming commonplace in green buildings and may be a viable option for District Cooling systems. As refrigerant legislation continues to get tighter, enco[..]

Industrial processes and machines generate such large amounts of heat that continuous dissipation is necessary for efficient operation. The heat must be to the environment. This is through a heat exchange process. That is the basis of the industrial cooling tower technology. It is interesting that d[..]

The story of district heating in Denmark is one in which a combination of regulation and thoughtful planning have meant a giant leap forward towards the energy transition.

The physical phenomenon of latent heat has been understood for centuries as one of the key components of the study of thermal energy behavior. More recently, the importance of latent heat has taken a new meaning as a facilitator of crucial operations for developing a sustainable heating industry. Ke[..]
