Refrigeration systems: guide to key energy saving opportunities.
Author(s) : Carbon Trust
Type of monograph: Guide/Handbook, Booklet
Summary
This refrigeration technology guide introduces the main energy saving opportunities for businesses and demonstrates how simple actions can save energy, cut costs and increase profit margins. Refrigeration is the process of mechanically cooling or reducing the temperature of a space, a product or a process. In some industries, in particular the food and drink and chemical industries, refrigeration accounts for a significant proportion of overall site energy costs. This is also the case for a number of commercial sectors. Against these high costs, even a small reduction in refrigeration energy use can offer significant cost savings, resulting in increased profits.
Extract from the table of contents: refrigerating display cabinets; cold rooms; compressors; condensers; evaporators; heat recovery; reduction of refrigerant leakage; free cooling; chillers; pipe insulation; maintenance; monitoring; purchasing of new equipment.
