New engine air control system raises sustainability in the environmental laboratory

Feb 15 2024

Fuel testing, scientific research, environmental analysis, and scientific research are just some of the tasks performed by labs across the globe. In recent years there have been raised concerns about their environmental impact because of energy, raw material and consumables consumption, which has led to a worldwide focus on environmentally sustainable practices for conserving energy and natural resources in laboratories.

CFR Engines Inc. has developed their technology to improve the levels of natural water usage in recirculation systems for cooling engines. Most laboratories will use up to 6 litres of water potable water every minute, which amounts to 2,400 litres in every 8-hour shift. CFR Engine’s integration of water recirculation has been developed to ease the environmental impact significantly.

The new Closed-Loop EACS (Engine Air Control System), from CFR Engines, is an integrated recirculating system that operates in the same manner as the conventional EACS, but without the need for water. This innovative system, which highlights CFR Engine’s dedication to improving environmental performance, integrates with CFR’s highly advanced XCP® Technology to simplify operations and enhance efficiency.

Laboratories now have a responsibility to embrace environmental sustainability and optimise energy efficiency, waste management and digitalisation. CFR Engine’s innovation will assist labs in their efforts to contribute to a sustainable future and encourage other scientific organisations to focus their efforts on improving environmental practices.
