Immersive cooling tech could help Bitcoin mining go green by 2030
Immersive cooling technology helps to increase hash rates and minimize energy output. Immersive cooling technology may help with the transition to zero-emission Bitcoin mining Bitcoin Mining Council (BMC) member Hass McCook told Cointelegraph. McCook, known online as Friar Hass, believes the industry is on track to hit the goal by 2030.Immersive cooling involves submerging Bitcoin mining ASICs into a specialized cooling fluid, which absorbs and recycles heat from the data center. This method of Bitcoin mining increases productivity.Earlier this month, Bitcoin mining company Riot Blockchain....

The process of mining Bitcoin is economically interesting from the energy point of view. Besides the problem with cooling of hardware, there is also the issue of the amount of energy that the hardware needs in the process of mining. There are developments taking place on the cooling issue, with some innovative solutions like immersive cooling. Bitcoin mining set in place a computing arms race which fuels interest in both cooling and energy generation. Densely-packed chips performing Bitcoin calculations are immersed in cooling fluid, which bubbles as it boils, removing the heat from the....
Bitcoin mining companies are now increasingly experimenting with immersion cooling, a form of cooling that allows them to get more hashpower out of existing miners. According to industry insiders, this cooling alternative will become mainstream in the future, as leading companies are already taking advantage and retrofitting these cooling devices to existing mining operations.

In an attempt to further decrease energy costs and its impact on the environment, BitFury announced that it was launching the world's largest two-phase immersion cooling (2PIC) project at its new data center in the Republic of Georgia. By using the technology from Allied Control, bought in January, and the Novec 7100 Engineered Fluid from industrial giant 3M, the company is hoping to optimize its operations and make them more green. The firm intends on using 3M's fluid to cool more than 40 megawatts of processing power. "The maintenance cost of traditional low-cost air cooling systems is....
The future of electronics cooling is a topic plaguing many technology and Bitcoin enthusiasts alike. With the mounting electricity costs, air cooling is no longer a viable option if you are deploying electronics en masse. And water cooling is a possible solution, but far from practical. But there is a good news, as researchers have cracked the code on how to use graphene-based film for electronics cooling. Over the years, scientists and engineers have been working hard to unlock the mystery of how to use graphene)based solutions to cool electronics. Researchers at the Chalmers University....
