Congress leads Chillventa week

GERMANY: The Chillventa Congress, which again takes place the day before the Chillventa show in Nuremberg, is this year divided into four major streams. 

The all-day event will include around 50 presentations by prominent international speakers

The ASERCOM & EPEE Symposium will share the stage with streams on refrigeration technology, heat pump technologies and sustainable solutions for data centres.

The R-AC-HP Industry: Shaping a net Zero-Emissions World is the title of the ASERCOM & EPEE Symposium. It will include specifics on implementing the F-gas regulation, the latest developments relating to PFAS, the interplay between environmentally friendly design, sustainability and legislative requirements, technological and geopolitical challenges on the way toward net-zero emissions and the key question of how the energy transition can be managed in practice.

Current plans and research projects on subjects including high-temperature heat pumps, water as a coolant, and mobile refrigeration systems will be included in the steam presented by the Bitzer-Chair for Refrigeration, Cryogenics and Compressor Technology at the Dresden University of Technology, the German Society of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (DKV) and the Information Centre on Heat Pumps and Refrigeration (IZW).

The Information Centre on Heat Pumps and Refrigeration (IZW) will separately lead the stream on innovations and trends in heat pump technologies.

Finally, the DKV will lead presentations focused on sustainable solutions for the energy-efficient cooling of data centres using waste heat.

The Chillventa Congress takes place at the NCC Ost Congress Centre, Exhibition Centre Nuremberg, on Monday 7 October 2024.
