ECONOMIZER
GREENHOUSES AND FARMS
An industrial economizer or heat recovery system helps improve efficiency in many different areas, one of which is greenhouses, where, among other things, it optimizes crop performance by controlling temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels. Within the wide range of implementations, we highlight three main blocks:
1. The first block refers to water treatment for the hydroponic growth of tomatoes, lettuces, peppers, strawberries, etc.
Hydroponic cultivation allows plants to grow faster and more vigorously thanks to direct access to nutrients. These nutrients are dissolved in a water flow that is distributed to the plants through channels. For proper nutrient absorption, it is important to maintain the water within certain temperature ranges, which is achieved thanks to our finned tubes. This heat exchange system can use spiral fins or continuous fins following the same direction as the tubes, maintaining a homogeneous temperature and optimizing both plant growth and quality.
2. The second block is air treatment through overhead ducts, where BOIXAC provides the finned heat exchangers that condition the air in the greenhouse or breeding farm. These exchangers can include various accessories such as fans, humidity controls, and temperature controls.
3. The third block refers to the technology that enriches the environment, thus increasing photosynthetic activity. We achieve this by reusing the excess energy from exhaust gases through the ECO, AIRY, or GASY heat recovery systems.
These thermal exchange units are selected based on primary and secondary fluids; in addition, the materials are also chosen according to the specific needs of each installation.
