Purix
The company manufactures patented sustainable cooling technology powered by thermal energy and the natural, non-flammable refrigerant R718 (water). Its plug and play products and systems target the high-volume market for cooling and air conditioning below 100 kilowatts (kW). The company also manufactures a patented low-cost, high-performance, configurable Thermal Energy Storage system with bulk phase change materials (PCM) applying direct-contact technology.
The company participated in a number of TechEmerge pilots which are described below. More data on the pilot experience is available from the report "TechEmerge Sustainable Cooling Innovation Program: Results and Lessons Learned".

Solar Cooling system
This modular multi-split solar air conditioning system delivers more than 2.5 kilowatts (kW) of cooling and is powered by low-temperature heating water or solar energy. It applies R718 (water) as a natural refrigerant.
By combining modules into systems with a higher capacity of up to 160 kW, the system supports competitive equipment costs, easy installation, and simple maintenance.
