Shoe care apparatus and control method therefor
A shoe care apparatus includes a chamber for accommodating shoes; a heat pump device including a condenser for heating air to be supplied to the chamber, and a compressor for discharging a coolant to the condenser; a fan for supplying the heated air to the chamber; a temperature sensor for acquiring the temperature of the air to be supplied to the chamber; and a controller. The controller performs a synchronous operation mode controlling the compressor and the fan to operate together, based on receipt of a signal from the temperature sensor, and performs an asynchronous operation mode in which the fan is operated without operating the compressor in response to a predetermined time period having elapsed after the stop of the operation of the compressor.
CO2 PROCESSING INSTALLATION USING A HIGH-FLOW CO2 GAS SOURCE AND WOOD DRYING RESOURCES IN A CO2 ATMOSPHERE
A facility for processing CO2 from a high-output CO2 source includes at least one CO2 distribution system having a supply circuit comprising an inlet end connected to the high-output CO2 source for collecting and storing the CO2, and an outlet end; drying means for drying in a CO2 atmosphere, connected to the CO2 distribution system, and configured to process said CO2 thus distributed during a drying operation and comprising storage means connected on the one hand to the outlet end of the supply circuit and on the other hand to the drying means, said storage means being configured to temporarily store the CO2 from the high-output CO2 source for later processing of said CO2.
