MemberThermoKey
Established in 1991, ThermoKey has been manufacturing heat exchangers of various types for over 25 years and is currently internationally known as the ideal partner for manufacturers of cooling units in the AC, refrigeration and cooling process fields. ThermoKey is the first European manufacturer of heat exchangers and fan units using aluminium microchannel heath exchangers. Microchannel technology allows a reduction of refrigerating fluid up to 65% and is compatible with GWP-free refrigerants, such as ammonia and propane. ThermoKey has long since introduced CO2 as a refrigerant for the whole range of evaporators to stay in line with the greenhouse gas emission reduction targets set by the regulation. Amongst the most important factors to be taken into consideration, there are the values that CO2 presents for GWP and ODP indicators, respectively equal to 1 and 0, which demonstrate its energy efficiency and sustainability from an environmental point of view. ThermoKey has already achieved these standards to offer unit coolers with stainless steel tubes for high working pressures and with copper tubes for medium pressure. …
MemberGermany - Umweltbundesamt
The Federal Environment Agency (Umweltbundesamt, UBA) is Germany’s central environmental authority. The Federal Environment Agency was established in Berlin in 1974 and has had its headquarters in Dessau since May 2005.The Federal Environment Agency is a partner and point of contact in Germany for a number of international institutions, for instance the World Health Organization (WHO) and the European Environment Agency. The work of Division III revolves around environment and health protection in technology, production and consumption. The two departments explore different ways of designing production processes and technologies in a way that imposes minimum pressures on the environment and human health while at the same time increasing the competitiveness of German companies and creating jobs. The goal is to increase the acceptance and sales of environmentally compatible and healthy products. The services of Division III comprise, for example, the "Blue Angel" eco-label as well as working out solutions to specific problems in different branches of industry. The Division is also concerned with improving the safety of installations and with sustainable waste and waste water management. …
Best practiceTraining: Successful financial training course in Lagos, Nigeria
Lagos, Nigeria- 17 representatives from the Nigerian Transmission Company and its affiliate partners have successfully completed a training course on the financial aspects of renewable energies. The course was conducted by the EEC and the European Centre of Technology, and funded by the World Bank. The course focused on the latest developments and international aspects of carbon finance, and the participants learned how their individual companies could prepare for the economic consequences of climate change. The relevant sector-specific targets outlined in Nigeria’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) to the Paris agreement, (hydro, off-grid solar, agriculture and public transport), were also discussed. At the end of the training, participants had the opportunity to receive the internationally recognized Galileo Master Certificate (GMC). The GMC boasts a reputation as a renowned and authoritative certificate in the global sustainability sector. …
Best practiceProduct: Ultra silent energy efficiency: the CXVE Evaporative Condenser
The CXVE condenser unit by the Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) offers maximum performance at the lowest possible energy input and refrigerant charge, reducing energy costs for industrial refrigeration applications by up to 50%. The CXVE condenser unit minimizes system-wide energy consumption by ensuring unrivalled efficient heat rejection at the lowest possible energy input and refrigerant charge. The low noise axial fans of the CXVE use 50% less energy than similar centrifugal fan units and produce minimal noise, such that they are ideal for industrial refrigeration applications with low sound and energy requirements. The CXVE design allows easy on-site assembly, arrangement into multi cells for large capacity requirements as well as easy access of all critical components for inspection/maintenance, hereby facilitating installation and operation. …
Best practiceProduct: Ice by night, air-conditioning by day: the TSU-C/D ice thermal storage
The TSU-C/D ice thermal storage unit by the Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) provides a constant near-freezing water (1-2 °C) supply for applications such as food processing, breweries and dairies at the lowest first cost. The external melt system of the TSU-C/D unit stores cooling as ice when cooling demand and/or energy rates are low (mostly overnight), and releases cooling for air-conditioning when cooling demand and/or energy rates are high (usually daytime). As the TSU-C/D forms ice overnight when electricity costs are cheapest and condensing temperatures are lowest, operational costs as well as the carbon footprint are lowered. As with all BAC cooling towers, the TSU-C/D model is independently certified by the Cooling Technology Institute (CTI), hereby ensuring that published thermal capacities reflect actual thermal performance. This eliminates the need for customers to perform costly individual cooling tower testing. …
Best practiceProduct: Save water with the new HXI-HXV closed circuit cooling tower!
The patented flow control system of the HXI – HXV hybrid closed circuit cooling tower by the Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) is the ideal solution for medium to large heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) and industrial applications. Unparalleled water and cost savings, adaptability to dry, adiabatic or combined wet-dry operation as well as no plume discharge make the HXI – HXV hybrid closed circuit cooling tower by the Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) ideal for a range of applications. The patented intelligent flow control system with a 3-way valve allows customers to remarkably reduce annual water consumption (by up to 70%). Depending on local water costs, the flow control system alone can pay for the HXI – HVX hybrid unit in as little as two years. As with all BAC cooling towers, the HXI – HXV model is independently certified by the Cooling Technology Institute (CTI), hereby ensuring that published thermal capacities reflect actual thermal performance. This eliminates the need for customers to perform costly individual cooling tower testing. …
