What Is District Cooling? And How It Works?

What Is District Cooling?And How It Works?

● DCS discards the use of harmful refrigerants and instead make use of energy sources found in the environment like seawater, river water and sometimes even treated sewage effluent. ● It is quite clear that DCS systems are much more environmentally friendly and sustainable compared to traditional cooling systems.

How does district cooling work?

Now that you have understood the basic premise of DCS, let's move on to how the system works. There are three main components here: 1. Central chiller plant A. Water filter B. Water treatment system 1. Closed-loop distribution network 2. Energy transfer station

● The chiller plant is used to cool the water to around 4-5 degrees celsius. ● This water is pumped to the network of buildings using the closed-loop distribution network. ● The energy transfer station consisting of meters, valves and pumps allows the building to reject the heat to the chilled water. ●

All this heated water returns to the chiller plant where it is treated and filtered to be recirculated to the buildings.

Now that we have looked at the workings of the district cooling plant , let us explore some of the advantages offered by this system to its users: 1. Reduces CO2 emissions.

2. Saves space and reduces noise 3. Higher energy efficiency 4. Minimizes health risks 5. More reliability 6. Minimal and controlled use of chemicals

● You can partner with any top district cooling company in the UAE to fulfil your cooling needs. ● As cooling demands increase and the need for clean cooling increases, DCS seem more relevant. ● Apart from the middle east- DCS are perfect cooling solutions for places like South America, Europe and Asia.
