着眼未来的技术,打造更可持续的喷雾干燥工厂

GEA AddCool

利用 GEA 创新的高温热泵解决方案,您可以减少消耗化石燃料和一次能源来减少喷雾干燥设备产生的碳足迹,并提高工艺可持续性。

AddCool heat pump solution
喷雾干燥是制造高质量、稳定粉末的行业标准方法。生产喷雾干燥机使用的热空气通常需要吸收化石燃料产生的能量。但是,如果有可能减少该过程的总体能源需求,同时减少化石燃料的使用量,并将碳足迹减少多达 40 - 50%,将会怎样?

节省运营成本并增加额外收入

这就是 GEA 现在所能提供的好处。凭借正在申请专利的创新 GEA AddCool 技术,我们可以将成熟的高温热泵技术集成到您现有的喷雾干燥工艺中,以减少您对化石燃料的依赖,并减少加热干燥空气的整体能源需求。使用 GEA AddCool,您可以显著节省运营成本(取决于能源价格)、减少排放量和提高工艺稳定性,以及产生可在工厂其他区域使用的额外冷却能力。

我们是怎样做到这一点的?GEA AddCool 热泵系统有效吸收您工厂中其他过程产生的能量,甚至从外部空气中吸收能量,作为产生喷雾干燥机用热空气的有效方式。 

请观看视频,它更详细地解释了这一点。

电力驱动效率

GEA AddCool 热泵技术由电力驱动,而不通过直接燃烧化石燃料进行驱动,向您提供喷雾干燥过程所需的高温加热,以及其他工艺环节所需的低温制冷,因此,您还可以节省制冷系统所需的电力。虽然电力可能比化石燃料更昂贵,但 GEA AddCool 系统的高效率意味着整体能源成本可以显著降低(取决于能源价格)。运行更环保、CO2 足迹更少的工艺,您在短短几年后就能看到显著的投资回报。

GEA AddCool 概念已由 GEA 专家开发和优化,利用了数十年来在工艺技术和喷雾干燥技术方面,以及为不同的行业部门开发热泵解决方案方面积累的综合专业知识。我们相信,这些综合专有技术和行业洞察力使我们在 GEA AddCool 解决方案的商业化方面处于独特的地位,为全球大大小小的粉末生产商提供创新、节能和减排的选择。 

将我们的技术与您的需求相匹配

我们将与您合作,配置 GEA AddCool 技术的组件和设置,以符合您现有喷雾干燥工艺、生产能力和规模以及更广泛工厂工艺的要求。重要的是,使用 GEA AddCool 不会改变您的喷雾干燥机的工作方式,相反,它设计用于配合您现有的喷雾干燥机空气加热系统运行。这意味着您可以在 GEA AddCool 系统暂时离线进行例行维护时保持喷雾干燥机运行,因此,您在生产过程中不必经历任何不必要的或意外的停机时间。虽然我们希望您现有的喷雾干燥机来自 GEA,但我们也可以定制 GEA AddCool 解决方案,以搭配其他制造商提供的喷雾干燥技术使用。跟我们聊聊,探讨一下可能性。

当然,正如我们为所有喷雾干燥机和热泵系统所做的那样,我们可以给 GEA AddCool 技术提供一系列服务选项。我们在这里支持您的工艺,维护您的组件和设备,因此请放心,您所有的 GEA 系统将在其整个生命周期内为您提供最佳性能。

Resource efficient solution


A system composed of a spray dryer equipped with the AddCool® heat pump solution, as used in the dairy industry, has been awarded the GEA Add Better label for its positive impact on reduced energy consumption. To establish that this system really can help to make spray drying less energy intensive, we put it through a dedicated suite of tests and evaluations that have been validated by TÜV, according to ISO 14021 standards. TÜV accepted key test results demonstrating that the spray dryer’s energy consumption can be reduced by up to 49%*. The Add Better label relates to the serial product 1947899, released in November 2022. The comparison refers to its predecessor model. The data are available for any of our customers to view.

How does it work

GEA AddCool® solution is powered by electricity, not by burning fossil fuels. The heat pump technology effectively draws waste energy from the dryer itself, other processes in your plant, or even from the external air, as an efficient way of generating the hot air for your spray dryer.

Retrofit into a typical spray drying plant, or installed into a new plant, the innovative, patent-pending AddCool® system can reduce the dryer’s overall energy demand, and cut fossil fuel consumption and carbon footprint by 50-80%. The system also generates additional cooling capacity that can be channeled to elsewhere in the plant.

Even though electricity might be more expensive than fossil fuels, the high efficiency of the GEA AddCool® system means that - dependent on energy prices - your energy costs could be significantly reduced. So, as well as enabling a more sustainable spraying drying process with a lower CO2 footprint, you could see a significant return on your investment within just a few years.

Have a look at the video, which explains this in a bit more detail.
