Hydroball Technics Pledges Support for Singapore's Zero Net Emission Target by 2050 with HydroBall Automatic Tube Cleaning (ATC) System

  • Written by Media Outreach
SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 26 March 2024 - Hydroball Technics Singapore, a pioneer in Green Energy & Water Conservation since 2003, is making significant strides in promoting environmental sustainability. With a commitment to assist Singapore in achieving its zero net emission target by 2050, the company is dedicated to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and optimising energy and water consumption in the power sector with its proprietary HydroBall System, an automatic tube cleaning solution. This system utilises continual hydro-mechanical cleaning operation by circulating spongeballs through the condenser tubing at pre-determined time intervals, keeping the inner surface free from scaling and fouling. Hydroball Technics Targets 1% Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions Power generation is a significant contributor to Singapore's carbon emissions, constituting approximately 40% of its total emissions. In line with the country’s goal of zero net emission by 2050, Hydroball Technics has been aiming to make a substantial impact by targeting a 1% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. This effort is set to translate to a remarkable 258,800 metric tons reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to the national objective of fighting climate change. To put this reduction into perspective, consider that in the United States, 1,402,438 kWh of electricity generation produces 576 metric tons of CO2 emissions. Therefore, Hydroball Technics' goal of reducing emissions would result in energy savings equivalent to 630,123,185 kWh, contributing significantly to a greener and more sustainable future. Leading the Charge Towards Sustainable Solutions With HydroBall ATC System The company’s greatest achievement lies in the HydroBall System, a “Non-Powered” automatic tube cleaning (ATC) system launched in 2005. This innovative system addresses the challenges faced by water-cooled condenser systems within chiller plant rooms of various commercial and industrial buildings. Specialising in energy and water consumption reduction and cost efficiency, the HydroBall System has become a key component in businesses' efforts to contribute to Singapore's overarching goal of becoming a sustainable and environmentally responsible nation. Three key features contributing to the success of this innovative system are:
  1. “Non-Powered” system which eliminates the need for prime movers like pumps, compressors, or diverters, thereby reducing maintenance requirements;
  2. “Water Resilience” mechanism which promotes water recycling, reuse, and circularity during regular operations, thus minimising water wastage;
  3. “Dual-Loop” design which prevents the re-entry of mixed hot and cold water into the condenser, thereby preserving chiller efficiency, unlike other tube cleaning systems.
They underscore the system's commitment not only to operational efficiency but also to environmental sustainability. By preserving chemically treated cooling water, the HydroBall System actively contributes to the support of biodiversity. This approach aligns with the broader goal of mitigating the impacts of climate change, as responsible water management plays a crucial role in addressing environmental challenges. This sustainable ACMV equipment has received the prestigious 4-tick score which is the maximum rating, under the Green Building Product Certification Scheme by the Singapore Green Building Council (SGBC) with certification numbers SGBP 4114 and 3745. It is a recognition that underscores Hydroball Technics’ commitment to providing environmentally friendly solutions for the HVAC/ACMV industry, further solidifying HydroBall Technic’s position as a leader in the green energy & water conservation space. With the HydroBall ATC System installed, buildings can enjoy significant optimisation on energy consumption. The chiller-specific electricity consumption can be reduced by 18.4%, as supported by an independent assessment report for the HydroBall ATC System from a field-testing project funded by The Enterprise Challenge Unit (TEC Reference No: L00279/772). This substantial reduction in electricity usage not only addresses critical factors such as cooling system inefficiencies and rising electricity rates but also aligns with the company's vision of creating a more sustainable and energy-efficient future for businesses across various sectors. Moreover, the HydroBall ATC System can lead to substantial cost savings of up to 35% on energy, water, labour and other expenses for buildings and large processing. "As a company deeply committed to green energy & water conservation, Hydroball Technics is proud to play an important role in assisting Singapore in achieving its zero net emission target by 2050.
