Refrigeration, both commercial and industrial, is one of the main markets for heat exchange on a day-to-day basis: food processing, storage at positive or negative temperatures and air conditioning of work rooms are just a few examples.

HVAC - Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning : air for living or working spaces is cooled or heated.

Energy transformation and distribution need to cool auxiliary loops.

This is even more the case for generating sets: almost half of the chemical energy has to be dissipated or recovered.

A bord de navires la salle de machines doit être climatisée, le circuit de lubrification des moteurs doit être refroidi, les espaces de vie climatisés, les denrées embarqués doivent être conservés etc, etc, ...

In the chemical industry, we come across exothermic processes that need to be cooled, tanks that need to be kept at temperature, ......

An exchange between the different heat flows promotes energy efficiency.

Some finished products, such as fertilisers, or semi-finished products, such as plastic granules, undergo heat treatment and/or drying.

Drying processes consume large amounts of heat and release hot, humid air streams that are often laden with dust, fibres or other contaminants.

Heavy industries such as steelworks, cement works, etc. use large quantities of heat under difficult conditions.

The production, transformation and combustion of hydrocarbons require special heat exchangers in terms of design, robustness and availability.

We have the answer.

The processing of food for human consumption, but also for animal consumption, involves heat and cooling.

Long-term storage is often in a frozen state, while short-term storage is in a cold room to preserve freshness.

Refrigeration plays an important part in these processes.

Air treatment in production areas and offices is of paramount importance.

Pharmaceutical production consumes large quantities of heat and cold at a wide range of temperatures.
