Ammonia refrigeration

Ammonia refrigeration uses ammonia gas to remove heat from enclosed spaces, like warehouses or industrial plants. Ammonia absorbs heat as it evaporates from a liquid form, cooling the surrounding environment. The ammonia is compressed and cooled back into a liquid, ready to evaporate again and continue the cycle. It’s efficient and environmentally friendly because ammonia has a high heat capacity and low global warming potential. However, it requires careful handling since ammonia is toxic and potentially hazardous. Overall, ammonia refrigeration provides a reliable, cost-effective solution for maintaining low temperatures in large-scale settings.
