Economizer for greenhouses

ECONOMIZER FOR GREENHOUSES GREENHOUSES AND FARMS An economizer for greenhouses or farms refers to the heat recovery system designed to improve efficiency in an environment where, among other things, crop performance is optimized by controlling temperature, ambient humidity, and CO₂. Within the wide range of implementations, we highlight three main areas: 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. Custom solutions for energy optimization in greenhouses and farms. Heat recovery systems for greenhouses and farms Water coil Water coil that is often used to condition the environment of greenhouses and breeding farms, improving animal welfare. Energy economizer Energy economizer or heat recovery system that allows the reuse of excess energy, for example, from biomass boilers. Finned heat exchanger Finned tube heat exchanger, a temperature control system that optimizes durability even in environments with certain contamination factors.

Select the materials of a heat exchanger

SELECT THE MATERIALS OF A HEAT EXCHANGER APPLICATIONS COMPATIBILITY TABLE This table has been created to guide you to select the materials of a heat exchanger based on some of the most common environments, fluids, and chemical compounds in various industries. It is essential to keep in mind that the behavior of materials depends on multiple factors such as temperature, pressure, or the concentration of these agents. For this reason, we emphasize the importance of seeking advice by contacting our technical office, who will guide you and provide solutions. Beyond heat exchangers made of copper, aluminum, steel, stainless steel AISI 304, and stainless steel AISI 316, we also want to highlight heat exchangers made of Hastelloy, titanium, cupronickel, stainless steel AISI 309, or stainless steel AISI 310, positioning ourselves as one of the leading specialists in special and demanding applications.
