There are three main fields of application for ARP’s:
- combination of a cogeneration with an ARP. The heat generated from the engine or turbine is used to drive the ARP. This "Tri-generation“ concept allows industries with no heating demand to install cogeneration plants and to be independent from the grid.
- using residual heat from other processes to drive the ARP.
- for applications at temperatures below -50°C where availability and low maintenance costs are of main importance, directly gas or oil fired, or steam heated plants may be a good option to vapour compression plants.
