SEG A/S

Fritz Egger GmbH & Co. in Austria

Project purpose and mode of operation:

To produce cold process water for their wood products production and flue gas condensation at the plant's waste incineration. Cooling capacity is 6 MW.

The absorption heat pump's chilled water circuit produces chilled water. Energy is absorbed from the process and flue gas condensation in the chilled water circuit and fed back to the heat pump evaporator. The evaporator transfers the energy to the heat pump absorber. The absorber is the return district heating water loop, which is in series with the heat pump condenser. The condenser and absorber heat the district heating water that is supplied to the district heating network. The heat pump is driven by hot water at around 150°C, which means that the electricity consumption of such a machine is minimal.

SEG A/S role:

To deliver, install and commission the absorption heat pump and train the operating staff in the use of the machine.

Description of the project content:

The absorption heat pump consists of the following areas;

  • Project planning and energy calculations for the absorption heat pump.
  • Absorption heat pump with supply components.
    • One Thermax absorption heat pump type HS 80B P, dimensioned to provide 6 MW cooling.
