How a Vitalis R744 (CO2) Heat Pump Will Help the University of British Columbia Okanagan Reduce Campus Emissions by 815 Tonnes Per Year
Minimize heat loss, reduce carbon emissions, and support both heating and cooling with higher efficiency, simpler infrastructure, and greater use of renewable low-grade heat sources.
Regulations are tightening because synthetic refrigerants come with growing concerns—from health risks to environmental impacts. R744 stands apart as a safe, natural, and efficient refrigerant, offering businesses and communities a clear path to sustainable refrigeration and heating for many commercial, industrial, and district energy applications.
Efficiency, efficacy, sustainability, and versatility are some of the main reasons why industries are upgrading to CO2 refrigeration.
Explore the efficiency of R744 ground source heat pumps (GSHPs), how they compare to R744 air source heat pumps (ASHPs), and why R744 GSHP vertical systems are among the most efficient heating and cooling solutions.
Explore CO2 phase diagrams, pressure-temperature charts, and the significance of purity and critical points.
CO2 Recovery
What You Need to Know About CO2 Capture and Storage Systems for Breweries
Explore the evolution of commercial CO2 capture and storage technology and how breweries (other than just the behemoths) can reap the rewards they deliver.
A webinar hosted by the Florida Brewers Guild.
Extraction / Processing
Efficiently produce high-quality, fat-free hop oils and resins with full flavor and aroma—preserving valuable compounds while reducing processing time and costs.
Supercritical CO2 extraction offers a clean, residue-free way to defat plant proteins—preserving nutritional quality and taste while enabling high-value, sustainable ingredients for the growing alt-protein market.
Pull higher concentrations of kavalactones through a clean, non-toxic process that delivers pure, customizable extracts preferred by formulators.
CO2 extraction enables zero-waste decaffeination and upcycling of coffee materials—preserving flavor, avoiding harmful solvents, and transforming byproducts into valuable ingredients.
Combine CO2 with ethanol to increase throughput, reduce fats and waxes, and lower per-gram production costs—while maintaining the purity and safety of pharmaceutical-grade extracts.
By integrating Vitalis’ Cosolvent Injection System, Christina Lake Cannabis greatly increased its daily biomass throughput, drastically reduced extraction times, and improved crude oil quality—enabling more efficient, scalable, and versatile cannabis extraction.
