Walter Mittelbach, CEO SorTech AG
Theme: Solar cooling with SorTech Adsorption Technology
Solar cooling
Cooling with process heat
Combined heat, power and cold (CHPC)
Cooling with district heat
Utilization of waste heat – integrated energy usage
concept
Enormous electricity and CO2 savings
Image gain for trade and industry
Primary supply of solar radiation and cooling
demand match up
Year-round utilization of solar system possible
High solar coverage
Avoidance of over-heating of solar system or
overload of buffer storage
Robust in regards to temperature variations
Applications
Optimal use of already existing heat
General benefits
Compared to electrically powered cooling systems
SorTech AG[Motivation – Application ‚Thermal Cooling‘ Basics]
www.sortech.de Walter Mittelbach, CEO SorTech AG
Grid stability
Energy savings
Lower operational costs
CO2-reduction
Climate protection
Solar Cooling
The perfect double & your benefits
SorTech AG[Motivation - Partnerships]
What kind of partner we are looking for?
1. Sales partnerships: distribution of Adsorption Chillers
2. Partner for licence production
What are our requirements to interested business partners ?
Licensed production: Purchase of the core technology, production facilities and assembly
Sales partnerships / distribution network in HVAC business = both option can be combined
Current state ?
There are already contacts in India
Promising target market

Desorption (e.g. 70°C)
Condensation(e.g. 30°C)
SorTech Technology[Unique Selling Point – Construction & more]
www.sortech.de Walter Mittelbach, CEO SorTech AG
Construction without
steam flaps and
condensate return
Dual chamber principle
(heat exchanger takes over
function of evaporator and
condenser)
Patented thin plate vacuum
mantle (coffee packaging
principle)
SorTech Technology[Unique Selling Point - Coating processes]
Adsorber / Desorber is being coated
with Silica Gel by utilization of epoxy resin Very good bonding of silica gel to heat exchanger
High energy density at low weight
Utilization at low operating temperatures
Fast heat transfer
Better steam transport
www.sortech.de Walter Mittelbach, CEO SorTech AG
Adsorber/Desorber is being coated with
Zeolite by utilization of the Partial Support
Transformation crystallization
Extremely high energy densities
Thin zeolite layers with direct thermal contact to
the heat exchanger allows a better heat transfer
Faster heat transfer
Optimal sorption rate
- Power Source: Solar collectors 40 m²
