Project description
At the heart of this system is a refrigeration unit, which is crucial for regulating the temperature of a fresh food store and thus ensuring optimum food storage. The system was implemented using natural refrigerants.
Technical information
Administration and logistics:
Hot water and cold brine distribution and generation are efficient and sustainable. Heat recovery takes place via the refrigeration system with a high capacity of 180kW for hot water HT 55°C and 470kW for hot water NT 35°C.
The hot water and brine production by the heat pump offers 200kW for hot water NT 35°C, 150kW for cold brine -3°C and has an electrical output of 90kW. The refrigerant used is NH3 – R717.
The hot water generation by Power to Heat offers 150kW for hot water NT 35°C with an electrical output of 150kW.
The cold brine generation offers a high capacity of 800kW at -3°C with an electrical output of 360kW. The refrigerant used is also NH3 – R717.
Building control:
Heating is provided efficiently via the floor. The offices are air-conditioned with chilled water cassettes. The blinds are controlled for three conditions: cooling protection, solar radiation and wind and frost (safety).
Cold storage rooms:
The dimensions of the freezer anteroom are 50 m x 20 m x 10 m and those of the production hall 90 m x 90 m x 10 m. The air coolers are operated with modulating EC fans and the return flow is controlled with a two-way valve and sensor.
