  • CO²-footprint reduction  
  • Huge amounts of energy wasted in cooling towers
Qpinch created a chemical heat pump to chemically convert industrial residual heat into usable process heat. 
“Software has evolved in such a way that non-programmers can solve a great deal without immediately understanding the entire software architecture. PCS 7 excels in this: because all connections are graphically visible, a problem quickly becomes clear to everyone. I too – a process engineer and not a software specialist – can help my colleagues thanks to the standard blocks in the program.”
"We want to develop quickly, because the clock is ticking. Siemens also helps with this. There is an extensive community where the programmers share knowledge with each other. By working together, we also make programming more efficient. On the other hand, we do more efficient engineering with COMOS. This avoids much duplication of effort. In the platform, we only have to define all our parameters once, and all data remains consistent throughout the entire process

  • 10 times more efficient than conventional heat pump technology  
  • Each unit of electricity, generates up to 35 times as much heat
