New components are helping to bring CO2 refrigeration systems to warmer climates and heat pumps can broaden the application of this natural refrigerant still further, Giovanni Dorin, the company’s marketing director, told R774.com.
Over 100 manufacturers, retailers, contractors and consultants gathered in the Italian city of Padova last week to hear how new developments in ejector technology are improving the performance of CO2 refrigeration systems in warm climates.
Dorin is taking orders for the world’s largest CO2 compressors. The Italian manufacturer will showcase two new CO2 compressor series at next week’s Chillventa tradeshow in Nürnberg.
Italian compressor manufacturer Dorin is debuting a four-cylinder compressor for small-scale CO2 transcritical applications.
HVAC&R industry experts from Australia and around the world will descend upon Melbourne this month to discuss the business case for natural refrigerants in Australia & New Zealand at the first ever ATMOsphere Australia.
New technology developments to help overcome the challenges of operating in high ambient temperatures are proving that CO2 transcritical units are “the way to go” for supermarkets – wherever they are located, Giovanni Dorin, marketing manager of Dorin Innovation, told R744 in an exclusive interview. The Italian compressor manufacturer company is heading into 2016 with exciting plans to enlarge its CO2 compressor portfolio.
Manufacturers and end users of natural refrigerants broadly welcomed the historic climate agreement reached among nearly 200 countries at COP21 in Paris last weekend (12 December). They see business opportunities in delivering a zero-emission economy and in reducing HFC use to help keep the global temperature rise below two degrees Celsius.
COOP Liguria in Italy has commissioned its very first CO2 transcritical booster system for its store in Carasco. With a sales area of 5,500m2, the COOP store at the shopping center “I Leudi” features two CO2 booster racks using Dorin CD compressors.
At China Refrigeration 2015, which gathered over 60,000 visitors and 1,000 exhibitors from across the world, CO2 products were showcased for a variety of applications for both heating and refrigeration. For commercial refrigeration applications, R744.com partners such as Carrier, CAREL, Panasonic, Dorin, SANDEN and Castel, as well as others demonstrated their CO2 know-how.
Although in many applications natural refrigerants remained the ‘emerging technologies’ on display, leading companies like Mayekawa, CAREL, thermea. Energysystems and Itomic quickly turned their attentions to Korea to showcase their CO2 technology and share their success stories with R744.com.
