Intro

---

The most advanced and revolutionary green technologies that are emerging in the energy industry find in the PCHE heat exchangers technology a crucial ally to bring innovation and sustainable development into the energy sector.

The ability to operate in extreme pressure and temperature working conditions of these exchangers enables a variety of new applications in the emerging hydrogen industry, as a renewable energy carrier for the green energy of tomorrow. Tempco has already developed several case applications using high-efficiency printed circuit exchangers for cooling, thermal management and heat recovery in electrolysis systems.

Another very important application area in the hydrogen industry concerns hydrogen refueling stations, where PCHE exchangers are a key technology for the cooling of the gas at high pressure and temperature in multi-stage compression cycles, ensuring that the gas temperature remains within the operational safety ranges. Also guaranteeing maximum efficiency and short refueling times of tanks in hydrogen-powered vehicles. Here, characteristics such as compactness, very high heat transfer efficiency and the possibility of operating at extreme pressure levels, up to 700 bar, are crucial for creating a proper distribution network of hydrogen refueling stations necessary for the development of sustainable mobility.

In the energy sector, PCHE exchangers are also a key asset for fourth generation nuclear power, which uses small-sized and ultra-efficient reactors. The printed circuit exchangers are used here for emergency heat dissipation applications in case of system failure, to guarantee the completely safe cooling task of the reactor core. PCHEs are the ideal solution for this type of application as they can be manufactured and certified in compliance with Lethal Service regulations and other standards applicable in the nuclear sector.

A crucial certification in order to achieve the extreme safety levels required on exchanger seals, possible in PCHE exchangers thanks to the particular and technically advanced diffusion bonding welding construction process employed.
