2 PagesLiBr based vapor absorption system gives -2°C cooling in Coca-cola saves electricity by 90% Project Overview A steam fired 200 TR vapour absorption machine (VAM) designed to give -2°C chilled brine while using CFC free refrigerant has been able to meet the bottle cooling requirement in Coca-cola plant at Pirangut in western India. The VAM uses steam energy input of 8 bar pressure. It has replaced an old compression chiller where it saved 1240 MW-hr of electricity per annum. Project Description Bottle cooling process is an important step in beverage manufacturing process. Solubility of CO 2 in water decreases as temperature increases. So before filling the bottles it is necessary to cool the bottles to contain the CO 2 inside the solution. Getting -2°
