Smart Buildings & IoT Security with Blockchain Technology

This seminar provides an overview of the fundamentals of heat pump technology - recovering waste heat from processes and buildings and reusing it. Participants will learn about the efficiencies of combined heating and cooling, magnetic-bearing compressors and the environmental benefits of using CO2 as a refrigerant. It includes a review of operating case studies and examples of where heat pumps can be applied for maximum ROI. Ideal applications include industrial applications with a heating and cooling load, pharmaceutical buildings, hospitals, and district heating projects. It aims assist in identifying opportunities to turn waste from one process into energy for another.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) has been a significant environmental issue for years, and indoor air contamination is proven to lead to the phenomenon of sick building syndrome (SBS). The use of ventilation, filtration, and source control are the primary methods for improving IAQ in most buildings. In this course, we will look at the various airstream disinfection technologies available to control the airborne spread of viruses in buildings.We will also give an overview of the key considerations to successfully implement air purification solutions for improved IAQ and enhanced protection during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond.

This seminar provides an overview of the refrigeration cycle and the advantages of magnetic-bearing chiller compressors. The use of oil-free compressors with non-contact magnetic levitation bearings results in higher efficiencies, less complexity and reduced chiller maintenance. With reduced refrigerant capacities, these chillers are sustainable and are available in a selection of future-proof refrigerants. This course includes examples of installed and operating projects and their savings achieved. It aims to highlight the most energy-efficient water-cooled and air-cooled chillers available today – chillers that are not only efficient at cooling but can also be converted to heat pumps!
