YAMATO Corporation has announced that it will again support ATMOsphere Asia 2015 as a Silver Sponsor. The conference, which will take place from 3-5 February in Tokyo, will serve as a bridge for business development between leading Asian and International companies for the second consecutive year.

YAMATO Co. Ltd. is an engineering company specializing in planning, designing, installation and maintenance for freeze and refrigeration facilities and HVAC. For these two areas, YAMATO Co. Ltd. originally developed a thermal storage system, accumulating thermal energy during nighttime for daytime loads, to achieve daytime electricity saving. The patented Ultra Eco-Ice System (UEI) is adapted by customers in Japan where it helps reduce daytime electric power demand significantly, improve energy efficiency and reduce running cost. The UEI system introduces brine on the secondary side and, in this way, significantly reduces HFC refrigerant charge and its leakage. By using this UEI system, YAMATO Co. Ltd. also developed an HFC-free system that does not require replacement of the existing HFC showcases for new CO₂ showcases by deploying brine as secondary refrigerant.

At the ATMOsphere Asia conference, YAMATO plans to introduce pilot project results of the new HFC-free solution using UEI for commercial refrigeration (low temperature freezing case). The research of UEI combined with systems using natural working fluids CO₂ and ammonia as a primary refrigerants was partially subsidized by NEDO (New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization).
