With increasing market pressure to build sustainable and scalable solutions, establishing a design approach around natural refrigerants that maximizes the efficiencies of startup resources is critical to building a long-term, scalable business. Historically, natural refrigerants have been associated with large, centralized systems. But newer, packaged solutions from equipment manufacturers have opened a modular avenue to industrial cooling and heating with natural refrigerants. Modular CO2 condensing units allow for a decentralized system that can reduce installing contractors’ time on-site and installation material cost while mitigating field-assembly risk associated with centralized systems.
Tune in to learn how CO2 condensing units can be implemented in solution design to deliver reliable and sustainable operation while minimizing capital and operating expenditures.
Listeners will learn:
- How using CO2 as a refrigerant in industrial applications can improve efficiency, reduce environmental impact and maintain long-term refrigerant compliance
- How a modular, decentralized CO2 system design can reduce installation time, cost and risk for contractors and minimize downtime for cold storage facilities and food manufacturing plants
- How to identify an ideal application for modular CO2 design
Bio:
As product manager of transcritical CO2 at Johnson Controls, Brandon Kesselring focuses on pushing the boundaries of what natural refrigerants can do and the benefits they can offer. Brandon and his team use insights from the field to engineer innovative, reliable and cost-effective solutions optimized to meet core operational demands and customer sustainability goals. He earned a dual degree in physics and electrical engineering and an MBA from Frostburg State University. After over 10 years in controls and product engineering, Brandon is as curious as ever and still gets excited over the small details in his work.
