Dehumidification systems from climate control specialist Munters have been selected to support key battery research at the University of St Andrews.
The university has established itself as a leader in the field with the inauguration of the Colin Vincent Centre for Battery Technology at Eden Campus. This facility is pivotal in advancing the development of sustainable energy solutions, particularly in battery chemistries.
Bedfordshire-based Munters previously designed, installed and commissioned a turnkey battery dry room that includes HVAC plant installation, commissioning, and maintenance.
The dry room operates at dewpoints between -40°C and -50°C, and includes the Munters DSS 1300 desiccant dehumidification system that has been fully equipped with Munters Green PowerPurge heat recovery system, which reduces the reactivation heater power by approximately 30%.
Professor John Irvine from the University of St Andrews said: “The key advantage to working with Munters is they have a proven track record. We’re very happy with what we’ve done with Munters, and would recommend them again.”
