Résumé

This paper provides an overview of development work conducted over the last ten years to enhance the efficiency, reliability and total cost of ownership of cold store and process refrigeration plant. The adoption of a low charge philosophy in the design of plant presents some challenges when compared with traditional system configurations but it also creates opportunities for improvements, not only in the management of risk. Benefits can include plant automation, operational flexibility and fixed asset regeneration, enabling a more sustainable approach to the provision of industrial refrigeration to be adopted. These benefits are closely aligned to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations and can contribute to corporate social responsibility (CSR) objectives. Each of these aspects is described in the paper, giving case study examples to illustrate the differences compared to conventional designs. The keys to successful implementation of low charge ammonia design are highlighted and opportunities for further development are outlined.
