Arctic Directory April 2015: New equipment helps companies reduce carbon footprint

Brice Equipment, a subsidiary of Calista Corp., has invested in two new pieces of equipment that will help companies operating in Alaska greatly reduce their fuel consumption and dramatically lower carbon emissions. Brice Equipment is the only Alaska dealer for the JetHeat Micro-Turbine Heater, the most advanced industrial heater on the market. It’s the only diesel-fired portable heater in the world converting more than 98 percent of fuel input into useable heat output. The result is a savings of over $500 per day in fuel. The JetHeat offers substantially reduced CO2, NOx and SO2 emissions, meeting stringent air permitting requirements.

Brice Equipment also exclusively offers the Puritan Arctic Heat Generator. The AHG eliminates problems associated with continuous idling of larger diesel assets in cold weather regions. Idling and insufficient engine loading causes heavy exhaust output (wet stacking) that damages equipment. The AHG allows operators to shut down the primary engine, which greatly reduces both the fuel burned per hour and sooty emissions output. Not only does this help the environment, it saves companies from costly repairs associated with engines continually running cold.
