Title : Advancements in vacuum insulated technologies for energy efficiency and sustainable temperature sensitive logistics
Abstract:
Vacuum insulated energy materials, such as Vacuum Insulated Wallpaper (VIW), Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIP), and Decorative Integrated VIP, represent pivotal industrial R&D developments aimed at reducing heating (in cold-arid regions) or cooling (in hot-arid regions) energy requirements in buildings. Their superior thermal efficiency and space-saving attributes make them invaluable for minimizing heat transfer, thereby significantly lowering the energy needed for maintaining indoor comfort. These technologies align with sustainability goals by reducing buildings' carbon footprints, with VIW and VIP offering superior insulation in extreme climates while requiring minimal material thickness compared to traditional insulation options like XPS, EPS, mineral wool, or polyurethane. As a result, they reduce both the space required and overall energy consumption, effectively supporting stringent building regulations and contributing to a sustainable, energy-efficient future. Expanding the applications of VIP technology beyond building insulation, the Vacuum Insulated Bag-or-Box (VIBB) introduces a next-generation solution for sustainable, temperature-sensitive transport and storage across critical sectors such as medical, food, agriculture, and chemicals. This innovative system, utilizing Flexible VIPs, is segmented into four types—Medical Box, Deep Cold Box, Rolling Cart Cover, and Fresh Bag—each tailored to meet specific industry demands. For example, the Medical Box maintains an internal temperature of 2-8°C for up to 147 hours at ambient conditions of 25°C, while the Deep Cold Box achieves the same temperature range for 72 hours at 30°C ambient temperature. The Rolling Cart Cover and Fresh Bag offer further specialized solutions for maintaining low temperatures in dynamic environments, contributing to more efficient and eco-friendly logistics operations. Together, these vacuum insulated technologies—both for building energy efficiency and sustainable logistics—represent groundbreaking advancements that not only enhance operational efficiency but also minimize environmental impact by reducing energy consumption and waste. This keynote will address the global challenges of achieving a sustainable, net-zero energy future, exploring the transformative potential of vacuum insulation technologies across diverse sectors.
