International. Daniel Sánchez Guerrero was awarded for his research on ecobooster cycles for efficient water heating.
The project focuses on the thermodynamic analysis of an innovative ecobooster water-cascade heat pump, which uses R290 and R600a refrigerants to produce water at very high temperatures. The focus of their study was based on the thermodynamic cycle of the system as a whole, as well as the selection of key components.
The main objective of this revolutionary system is to heat mains water with an inlet at 12ºC, raising its temperature in two stages to 50ºC and 90ºC, respectively. Daniel's work explored the feasibility of this process and the ability to reach the desired temperature efficiently.

The presentation of the I Keyter Intarcon Genaq Award took place at the School of Engineering (ETSI) of the University of Seville. The event was attended by José Manuel Salmerón, director of the Keyter Intarcon Genaq Chair; José María Raya, CEO of Intarcon and Antonio Blanco, CEO of Keyter.
"The distinction awarded to Daniel Sánchez is a testament to the quality and innovative vision that drive the Keyter Intarcon Genaq Chair and the Keyter Group. These types of projects, and the research they represent, are crucial to continue improving efficiency and sustainability in the field of air conditioning, cooling and atmospheric water production," the company said in a statement.
