Breakthrough cold generation technology for efficient & environmentally-friendly cooling.
This project develops an energy-efficient cooling technology using adiabatic expansion to reduce CO2 emissions by 50% and operating costs by 30%, while achieving rapid cooling to -90°C.
Projectdetails
Introduction
We have developed a new cooling technology based on the principle of adiabatic expansion.
Comparison with Traditional Technology
Compared to the traditional vapour compression technology:
- It uses air instead of toxic HFCs to transfer energy, eliminating this source of pollution and therefore reducing CO2e by 50%.
- In DAC, the energy extracted from the cooled air is not emitted as heat into the atmosphere but turned into electricity, unlike in traditional vapor compression AC/refrigeration units.
Energy Efficiency
This electricity is used to contribute up to 30% of the energy required for powering up our units, hence it is 30% more energy efficient compared with traditional compression systems (lower OPEX). This means that they are much cheaper to run.
Manufacturing Cost
Due to a much simpler design and smaller size, manufacturing costs of our devices are up to 30% lower (lower CAPEX).
Performance Capabilities
DAC tech can cool any air (regardless of its humidity or initial temperature) down to -90°C within seconds from the start of operation and under very low pressure.
