Energysmart Cooling using Waste Heat
Simply Biomass are Sole UK Distributors of Bry-Air Chillers. These innovative Adsorption Chillers are highly efficient, even at lower input temperatures which make them ideal for converting waste/ biomass heat into cooling. They can use a variety of energy sources, typically process waste heat, biomass heat, solar collectors, tri-generation (CHP) generators, or traditional power plants. Applications include process cooling, aluminium anodizing, mould cooling, acid cooling, food processing, air conditioning (HVAC). Also cement, steel, plastic processing, hospitality, healthcare and many more…
Bry-Air is a global solution provider for complete environmental control with a specialisation in cooling and air conditioning. Their range of chillers use cutting-edge technology designed to use low grade waste/ biomass heat for cooling without any environmental impact and require very little maintenance.

How does the Bry-Air Adsorption Cooler work?
The principle of Adsorption works with the interaction of gases and solids. With Adsorption Chilling, the molecular interaction between the solid and the gas allow the gas to be adsorbed into the solid. The adsorption chamber of the chiller is filled with solid material, silica gel, eliminating the need for moving parts and eliminating the noise associated with those moving parts. The silica gel creates an extremely low humidity condition that causes the water refrigerant to evaporate at a low temperature.
As the water evaporates in the evaporator, it cools the chilled water. The adsorption chiller has four chambers; an evaporator, a condenser and two adsorption chambers. All four chambers are operated at nearly a full vacuum.
Why is Adsorption a better choice?
