Presentation:
The topic “Absorption Chillers an Opportunity for Energy Recovery” will provide insight on the energy saving that can be achieved. Frank will discuss methods of being environmentally sound and using available sources of energy that are normally being wasted. He will also cover topics such as wasted heat applications and using available steam in absorption chillers to provide means of cooling in buildings operations. I think the presentation will provide you with a stimulus to think.
