Heat Transfer Fluid for Cryogenic Energy Storage

Heat Transfer SolutionsCryogenic Energy Storage

Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES) performance is reliant upon efficient cryogenic cooling, sub-zero storage and rapid gasification. Coolflow heat transfer solutions are used to convert liquid air to a gaseous state prior to turbine entry.

Hydratech specialise in the manufacture of heat transfer fluids, glycols, antifreeze solutions, inhibitors and cleansers - for use in cooling and heating systems across all sectors. Supported by a range of Fluid Management Services to maximise, monitor and maintain long-term thermal efficiency.

Products

Coolflow

Process Cooling Fluids for Pre-Heating

A range of fully inhibited heat transfer fluids, for use in sub-zero applications down to -60C. Coolflow IGE was selected by Highview Power Storage for use in their prototype LAES system. Learn more about our fluids for LAES Systems

Sureflow

Multifunction Inhibitors for Pre-Heating

Corrosion, scale and biological inhibitors to protect water-only and antifreeze-based cooling and heating systems. Sureflow inhibitors are also used to boost protection after extended periods of operation. Learn more about our fluids for LAES Systems

Purachem

Cleansing & Conditioning Chemicals for Pre-Heating

Cleansing and sterilising chemicals for pre-commission conditioning of cooling and heating systems. Purachem products can also be used to periodically recondition pipework systems. Learn more about our fluids for LAES Systems

Services

Fluid Management

Managing cooling and heating fluids is important if process efficiency is to be optimised and operating costs minimised. Hydratech provide a range of fluid management services to maximise thermal efficiency, minimise downtime and extend component life. E.g. A pro-active fluid monitoring and treatment program is a simple yet effective means of identifying and correcting any minor issues, before they become problematic.
