Propane chillers, each with a 1.2 MW cooling output

Natural refrigerants are on the rise. Whereas ammonia has to date been the main compound used in megawatt refrigeration systems, propane is now also making inroads into the higher-performance segment. This is underlined by the expansion of the energy centre at the Stuecki-Areal in Basel to include two propane refrigeration systems from CTA, each with a cooling capacity of 1.2 MW.
