Anti-fouling additive

Anti-fouling additive HVAC systems rely on a compressor to convert the refrigerant from a low-temperature, low-pressure, saturated vapour to a high temperature, high pressure, superheated vapour as a first step in the vapour compression cycle, that is used for air conditioning. Like most mechanical devices, compressors require a lubricant oil to reduce friction and heat [...]

Solar Capex vs Opex

Today, the questions on sustainable energy solutions are no longer about accessibility and availability. With solar being 20% cheaper than grid power, most large C&I consumers have accelerated their plans to adopt onsite solar. Switching to solar helps reduce carbon footprint and supports the CSR goal of going green. There are two options when turning [...]

REC & RPO Explained

India’s renewable energy journey that began with focus on small scale rural domestic applications such as biogas and solar lanterns in the 1980s (click here) widened to large scale utility scale addition in the early 2000s. This shift can largely be attributed to: Global warming Highly fluctuating nature of oil prices in the international markets [...]

Heat Transfer Additives

Chillers are one of the largest energy guzzlers in any industrial setup. A chiller system can, today, have a full load efficiency of 0.5 - 0.6 kW/TR for the entire chiller plant. The most efficient chiller systems have efficiencies of about 0.47 kW/TR. Getting a system’s efficiency to this level is possible with smart investments [...]

AxFlo Fans

Fans are used in several applications across industries, from exhausts and fresh air units to humidification and dehumidification units. However, system efficiencies rarely exceed 50-60%. The latest in fan technology, the AxFlo fan, is a novel concept that is miles ahead of the competition, with unparalleled total system efficiencies of 85%. The improvement in total [...]

Working of a Heat Pump

Heat pumps are devices that deliver hot water or air. They are a sustainable heating solution that use mechanical energy to transfer heat between areas with a negative heat differential. Industrial applications, that require hot water or low temperature heat (< 90 C) for their process applications, typically use electrical heaters or fossil-fuel based solutions. [...]
