Leave Refrigerants Out in the Cold: insight as to how the AP-C1™ process differentiates itself from more typical precooled, mixed-refrigerant, Reverse-Rankine (RR) cycles
Air Product's white paper shows that gas expansion cycles can provide significant power savings when operating at ambient temperatures well below the design point.
Additionally, the process is operationally simple and flexible, especially operating in climates such as the arctic where monthly and annual ambient temperatures change significantly and rapidly. These features make it particularly attractive for arctic applications.
