Chillers are

We are one of the only businesses capable of working throughout the country to recover, recycle, and purchase back Lithium Bromide (Libr) solutions from an absorption chiller. We can completely drain an old chiller, including the removal of scale and sludge, whether you are decommissioning it or merely replenishing the fluid. Sludge and scale will be properly and safely disposed of. We have experience with absorption chillers from Carrier, Trane, York, Broad, Panasonic, Mitsubishi, Thermax, and Yazaki. To avoid crystallization and scale accumulation and efficiently drain some chillers, we are able and have occasionally had to “Hot Tap” some chillers to drain in many areas. By using a centrifuge, we may dewater and purify lithium bromide and sell the finished product back to the primary manufacturer.

Significant Tonnage Absorption Chillers are extremely effective chemical chambers that can cost-effectively cool huge buildings, schools, and even entire cities. This is due to the fact that they are mainly propelled by heat and chemical reaction rather than electrically powered compressors and have nearly no moving components. These chillers have a difficulty in that the chemical refrigerant that keeps them running is extremely corrosive to the steel that they are composed of. Lithium bromide is the component in this mixture. Large amounts of abrasive particles are produced as a chiller corrodes and the steel used to build it starts to flake and delaminate. These particles clog the chiller’s nozzles and chambers, impairing the chemical process that produces cooling.

These chillers are maintained as closed loop systems to prevent corrosion by preventing oxygen from entering the chiller, which would hasten corrosion and chiller degradation. Iron and copper rust corrosion is also known as oxidation, thus if oxygen is prevented from entering the system, oxidation cannot happen. Unfortunately, it is practically impossible to find and stop every air leak in these systems given the pressures placed on facility maintenance staff. Technicians have created a number of trade secrets to stop the degeneration of these chillers. One is to introduce chemical additions to the solution, these are known as inhibitors. Although preventing corrosion on steel, these inhibitors turn the lithium bromide solution into hazardous waste. We have a specifically trained field service crew that can visit your site, collect samples, submit them for lab testing and analysis, and then provide you a solution profile. The old solution can then be pumped down, containerized, and removed. Our staff members are prepared and specially trained to handle lithium bromide solutions. For recycling purposes, we can also disinfect your chiller. If the solution has been hindered by Hex-Chrome, even after an absorption chiller has been dehydrated, it should be decontaminated before being recycled. Your chiller can be dehydrated, cleaned, and made ready for recycling. Also, we provide on-site recycling for your absorption chiller. We may remove it from the container, drain it, dehydrate it, disinfect it, and break it into 30 pound chunks
