The Importance of Glycols in Sustainable Cooling and Heating Systems

Glycols, such as propylene glycol and ethylene glycol, are essential in sustainable heating and cooling systems. Its properties improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact.

What are glycols and why are they relevant?
They are compounds from the alcohol family used as antifreeze and coolants. They prevent ice formation and optimize heat transfer for efficient operation.

Key benefits:

  • Corrosion protection: They prevent damage to systems.
  • Thermal efficiency: They reduce energy consumption.
  • Biodegradability: Especially propylene glycol, with less environmental impact.


Contribution to sustainability

  • Energy efficiency: They improve heat transfer and reduce emissions.
  • Less use of polluting refrigerants: They reduce the load of refrigerant gases and the risk of leaks.
  • Renewable energy compatibility: Ideal for solar and geothermal systems.
  • Longer useful life of equipment: They protect internal components and reduce failures.


Applications

  • HVAC Systems: In commercial and industrial buildings.
  • Industrial chillers: Key in sectors such as food and pharmaceuticals.
  • Renewable energies: Optimizes the performance of solar and geothermal systems.
  • Secondary refrigeration circuits: They reduce the use of harmful refrigerants.


Additional advantages

  • Greater safety and lower environmental impact.
  • Energy savings and cost reduction.
  • Compact design and reduced maintenance.
