Utilities - Water Bio-Digester Cooling Reading 100kW Chiller Hire
What Did We Do?
Our regional manager attended site to assess the nature and scale of the cooling requirement. A proposal and project plan was then produced to address the need.
How Did We Do It?
Once agreed with the customer, Carrier Rental Systems delivered a high performance, high efficiency 100kW chiller to site. After commissioning, it was connected to the plant’s main process heat exchanger. This enabled rapid contactless cooling of the bio-digester contents as they passed through their own circuit within the heat exchanger.
Equipment – 1 x 100kW CRS chiller
End User – A major water utility company
Application – Bio-digester plant producing fuel gas
Additional – Flexible Pipe Work, Cable & Buffer Tank

Once installed and commissioned, the chiller rapidly reduced the temperature of the bio-digester contents, progressively slowing biological reactions to near zero. This enabled the safe removal of materials, allowing maintenance work to begin.
The Regional Sales Manager at Carrier Rental Systems said: “This was an unusual hire project, as typically boilers are required to initiate biological activity during start-up. In this case, a temporary cooling solution was needed to reverse the biodigestion process, enabling esse
