Industrial operations represent a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions and most of the waste heat is simply rejected via cooling towers to the atmosphere. It can be thought of as “dumped” heat. Waste heat is the by-product of system inefficiencies found in industrial and commercial process and represents a waste of resources, opportunities and money. Waste heat is commonly generated during:
The principle of Adsorption works with the interaction of gases and solids. With adsorption chilling, the molecular interaction between the solid and the gas allow the gas to be adsorbed into the solid.
The A sorption chamber of the chiller is filled with solid material, silica gel, eliminating the need for moving parts and eliminating the noise associated with those moving parts. The silica gel creates an extremely low humidity condition that causes the water refrigerant to evaporate at a low temperature.
As the water evaporates in the evaporater, it cools the chilled water. The A sorption chiller has four chambers; an evaporator, a condenser and two A sorption chambers. All four chambers are operated at nearly full vacuum.
Adsorption Chillers eliminate noisy compressors, high-pressure refrigerant systems, high amperage electrical connections, refrigerant monitoring & alarm systems and high maintenance costs.
