Sea Water Air Conditioning Using deep sea water for ecological and affordable cooling solutions Deprofundis A new solution for middle sized structures Baptiste Bassot Presentation to Green Mondays 27/10/2008

Cold generation 101 Necessary for Modern Society Processes Confort How do we produce cold? Force the opposite of a natural phenomenon High costs Energy intensive Gas

A sucessful approach: SWAC systems

Curaçao, Netherlands Antilles, Evelop Crp: 90% electricity and CO2 emissions saved

In Toronto, Lake Ontario waters cooling 51 high-rise buildings, using 10% of conventional systems energy

Still in infancy, yet showing potential: OTEC systems Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion

The opposite of a conventional a/c system! Like all geothermal energy sources

Back to SWAC: Energy gains Cooling power 25

Immersed heat exchanger  Geometry 

Massively parallel

 Size

6 modules  3m x 3m x3m (400 Kg) each 

Environmental topics •

Radius of 5 km of a depth of – 600m (in tropical waters)



Material used (PEHD used for pipes, titanium for heat exchanger): no exchange with the environment for decades. Able to be re-used indefinitely + recycled

Advantages  Thin pipes  Available in rolls  Easy to handle  Easy to deploy  Suitable for remote

locations

 Closed loop  Control on the circulating water  No end-pipe filter  No risk of aspirating sea material  Easy maintenance

A special offer •   

location (distance and relief) options (PV / wind solutions for the pump) electricity costs subventions

ROI 5 years in average, for a solution least 20 years. Parameters of a characteristic site for the study: Intake depth : 800m (5°C) - output water 14°C Pipe of 2150 m in PEHD : diameter 150-123mm
