The Feasibility of Ammonia - Water Absorption Refrigeration for Fishing Vessels

Ammonia compression refrigeration system and ammonia - water absorption refrigeration system powered by the heat recovered from engine exhaust gasses are designed and compared on an example of sea water refrigeration for medium - sized fishing boats. It has been shown in this paper that the single - stage absorption refrigeration plant can achieve better results in energy efficiency and in terms of environmental impact. Furthermore it has been demonstrated that even lower total costs of absorption system compared to a compression system can be achieved for the analyzed application. Drawbacks of absorption systems, such as high mass and volume do not allow wide application but they can be overcome by further research in absorption system optimization.
