Carnot Compression: Problem and Solution!

Our goal is to offer an oil-free alternative to current compressors. We wanted to highlight how we're solving current issues in the Compressed Air market; a market projected to reach a valuation of $40.43B by 2028. (Source: GrandViewResearch) 

The Problem 

12% of U.S. industrial sector electrical consumption goes to powering air compressors. Oil-free compressed air is a must-have for many facilities in sectors like manufacturing and scientific research, automotive painting, food and beverage, and more. 


Air purity is of the utmost importance, as any small presence of oil could cause massive damage in lost product, contamination, downtime, and other setbacks.


According to our research, people who only need low horsepower oil-free air compressors (especially the 5-30 horsepower range) are limited to machines with many moving parts and frequent maintenance requirements. These machines do not typically last very long.


Compressors utilize a massive amount of energy—estimated at $227 billion yearly in energy costs. (source)


Approximately ⅔ of air compressors are oil-flooded. Additionally, conventional oil-free compressors under 100HP are typically more costly and less efficient. 

The Solution

We’ve found a more efficient and reliable solution that should cut costs by 20% or more! Carnot has developed a patented process capable of compressing air in an isothermal manner. This allows for a constant temperature using a single moving part – a spinning drum.

 

By efficiently capturing the heat from compression, we believe we have a path to dramatically lower lifetime ownership costs, allowing our customers to increase their business’s operating profits.
