Make the most of your energy recovery efforts!
We believe the future of industrial energy recovery is with Heat Pumps. With many manufacturers taking responsibility for their environmental impact, recovering and upgrading waste heat has become a priority. JOA has built a vast track record of integrating Heat Pumps to improve operations and Energy Recovery efficiency.
What makes it a industrial Heat Pump?
A heat pump is not very different from a chiller that has been widely deployed in the industry. The primary difference is that a chiller absorbs heat for cooling purposes. While a heat pump absorbs heat and releases it back at higher temperatures. In practice, chillers produce cold water while heat pump produces hot water or even steam.
Compared to commercial heat pumps that are deployed in homes and residential buildings, industrial heat pumps often offer significantly higher capacity, wider ranges of installation options, and improved robustness and efficiency.Â
Why use an Industrial heat pump?
Key factors that make industrial heat pumps ideal for industrial processes include:
- Waste heat becomes useful heat
