ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY UTILIZATION OF SURPLUS HEAT FOR AIR CONDITIONING COOLING, ABSORPTION COOLING
COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY recycle thermal waste energy for cooling purposes in air conditioning systems, battery cooling, and other applications. This leads to a significant reduction in the requirement for electricity for cooling. Moreover, the unique cooling technology employs no environmentally harmful refrigerant gases.
COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY’S TECHNOLOGY IS DEVELOPED FOR SHIPS BUT CAN BE APPLIED ANYWHERE
The technology is based on a well-known principle called absorption cooling. Absorption cooling has rarely been employed aboard ships, primarily due to the design utilized until this point. The processes in absorption cooling are highly sensitive to movements, and will quickly be disrupted once at sea. COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY has developed, tested, and patented a unique design that ensures optimal process performance in dynamic conditions with movements, vibrations and fluctuations in process conditions.
Even this design is specifically developed for dynamic environments, particularly ships, it is applicable in facilities worldwide that produce waste heat.
A RELIABLE DESIGN WITH MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY’s cooling technology utilizes the unique properties of lithium bromide.
Lithium bromide is not harmful to the environment or to human health. However, it does react aggressively with certain metals. Because of this, COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY’s cooling equipment is entirely constructed of plastic (PE and PP) and acid-resistant steel (316L).
Furthermore, since the design has very few moving parts, the solution is very reliable and requires only minimal maintenance.
FLEXIBLE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION WITHOUT DOWNTIME
COOL 4 SEA & INDUSTRY’s cooling technology is modular, and the modules can be brought into the engine room through the ship’s hatches while the ship is in service.
This means that it is not necessary to lay-up or dock the ship during installation.
The modular design ensures that the design of the cooling technology has a high degree of flexibility and can be adapted to the conditions found in most engine rooms.
HIGH EFFICIENCY THROUGH THE INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEM
The cooling occurs as a result of a number of physical/chemical processes. In order to achieve high efficiency, it is important that the processes which are the key to this cooling technology can function optimally without disturbing the surrounding processes which are more vital.
Therefore, the entire cooling process must be controlled with respect to the surrounding process conditions. The control system can monitor, log and document the cooling process. Possibility for on-line support if necessary.
