Markets and Applications for Ecodry Intelligent Process Cooling
The modular configuration of the Ecodry closed loop process cooling system offers flexibility and scalability that make it ideal for manufacturers of all sizes in a range of markets and applications
 Food and Beverage
- Quality: Cooling towers and central chillers lack the precise temperature and flow control required for optimal quality in food processing. The Ecodry’s closed loop system enables far greater control over temperature and pressure at each process machine—delivering more accurate production parameters and more reliable results.
- Cleanliness: While traditional process cooling methods require regular cleaning with harsh chemicals, the Ecodry system continuously reuses and re-circulates clean water, making it ideal for environments such as industrial kitchens and pasteurization processes where zero contaminants and clean water near food products is critical.
- Water and Energy Conservation: In a market where excessive water use is a constant concern, Ecodry’s closed loop system ensures the cooling water doesn’t evaporate. So it doesn’t pollute the atmosphere with greenhouse gases, nor does it require cleaning with chemicals that pollute the public water system. Best of all, the system helps reduce water use by up to 98 percent and energy use by up to 95 percent.
 Pharmaceutical
-
Cleanroom Requirements: Pills, capsules, creams and other medications require extremely clean water to process. Unlike traditional cooling methods, in which cooling water quickly becomes contaminated, the Ecodry’s closed loop system provides clean water at the right temperature to each process machine, year round.
- Energy Efficiency: Studies show that traditional chillers can account for over 50 percent of energy use in a cleanroom, but using the Ecodry can reduce that figure—and the associated costs—dramatically. Customers have reduced energy consumption by up to 95 percent.
- Water Conservation: In an industry so dependent on water, pharmaceutical processors can reap big benefits by saving water—by up to 98 percent—with an Ecodry process cooling system. Ecodry’s closed loop ensures the cooling water doesn’t evaporate, so it doesn’t pollute the atmosphere with greenhouse gases, nor does it require cleaning with chemicals that pollute the public water system.
 Medical Devices
- Cleanroom Requirements: Medical device manufacturing cannot tolerate cross-contamination among different parts of the operation. That’s why the Ecodry’s closed loop cooling system is such an advantage. Unlike traditional cooling methods, in which cooling water quickly becomes contaminated, Ecodry keeps cooling water protected, providing clean water at the right temperature to each process machine, year round.
- Quality: Cooling towers and central chillers lack the precise temperature and flow control required for the stringent quality demands of the medical device industry. The Ecodry’s closed loop system enables far greater control over temperature and pressure at each process machine—delivering more accurate production parameters and more reliable results.
- Cost Reduction: Studies show that traditional chillers can account for over 50 percent of energy use in a cleanroom, but using the Ecodry can reduce that figure—and the associated costs—dramatically. Customers have reduced energy consumption by up to 95 percent, while cutting their water use by as much as 98 percent.
 Plastics and Rubber
- Sustainability: As plastics manufacturers strive to improve the environmental impact of their operations, the chemicals required to clean traditional process cooling technology keep getting in the way. But water in the Ecodry system is never exposed to outside elements, so it doesn't require cleaning, providing a big boost to sustainability efforts.
- Water Conservation: Plastics processors using cooling towers and central chiller systems go through tens of thousands of gallons of water per year. But with the Ecodry closed loop process cooling system, the water doesn't evaporate, delivering water savings of up to 98 percent.
- Energy Cost Reduction: Rising energy costs are becoming a major concern in the plastics industry, especially true for small-to-medium sized companies that have very little room when trying to balance operating expenses against profitability. The Ecodry system can help by reducing energy costs associated with process cooling by up to 95 percent.
 Heat Treat
- Clean Water: If you're using a traditional cooling tower system, how clean is your cooling water? The Ecodry from Frigel virtually eliminates water contamination problems, providing more consistent, reliable cooling for heat treat processes including vacuum furnace, continuous furnace, batch furnace and induction furnace.
- Conservation:For a process as resource-intensive as heat treating, managing resources wisely is a key to gaining a competitive edge. By using an Ecodry system, heat treat facilities can achieve savings of 95 percent in water consumption vs. a conventional cooling tower system.
- Quality: The Ecodry's closed loop system enables far greater control over temperature and pressure at each process machine than traditional cooling tower systems. The benefits include more accurate production parameters and optimal quality for your heat treating process.
