Ammonia: The application

September 20, 2023
“When designing the new factory, we chose to put both processing and utilities experts in the same room and asked them to challenge each other in every aspect of production process and general operations to come up with the ultimate CO2 neutral solution. That solution included using ammonia as a natural refrigerant for the refrigeration and heat pump plant." After a year in production, former Director of Operations at Innocent Drinks in Europe, Andy Joynson, is very happy with the clear results the solution is showing: “We’re operating with something like 60% of the energy demand that would be required to run a plant of equivalent size, so it’s a significant difference”.
