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 Costs

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.
