Heat recovery in industry – energy efficiency with Axtora Energy
In the face of rising energy costs and increasingly stringent regulations on CO2 emissions, industrial companies are looking for ways to optimize energy consumption. One of the key tools in this process iswaste heat recovery, which allows you to transform unused thermal energy into electricity. This solution not only reduces costs, but also supports environmental protection goals.
How does the heat recovery process work?
Industrial processes such as manufacturing, cooling and heating often generate significant amounts of heat that are lost. Thanks to advanced technologies offered byAxtora Energy, this heat can be recovered and converted into electricity. Our systems use compact turbines that are capable of converting low-temperature heat (from 70°C) into electricity. This technology is perfect for plants with high energy consumption, such as cooling systems, industrial furnaces and engines.
Application of our solutions in various industries
Heat recovery technologies offered by Axtora Energy are used in many industrial sectors:
-
Plastic Processing: Heat generated during extrusion and injection of plastics can be reused, leading to significant energy savings.
-
Chemical industry: High-temperature chemical processes are an excellent source of waste heat that can be efficiently converted into electricity.
-
Food industry: Cooling and heating processes in food plants generate significant amounts of heat that can be reused, reducing operating costs.
-
Metallurgy: Heat from metallurgical furnaces or foundry systems can be recovered, reducing the need for external energy sources.
-
Paper industry: Paper production processes generate large amounts of heat that can be reused, reducing energy consumption in plants.
Benefits of implementing heat recovery
- Significant energy savings: Heat recovery can reduce energy costs by up to 20-30%, depending on the scale of your business.
- Increased operational efficiency: Reducing the need for external energy sources leads to greater production stability and energy independence.
- Environmental protection: Reducing CO2 emissions and other harmful gases supports pro-ecological activities and helps companies meet growing legal requirements.
- Regulation compliance: Companies that implement heat recovery will be better prepared to meet future energy efficiency and sustainability standards.
How does the heat recovery module work?
A heat recovery module is typically the size of a standard 20-foot container, although smaller options also exist. This system is connected to the industrial plant through pipes in which a liquid with a lower boiling point than water flows, which increases the efficiency of heat conversion. When the heat generated in the plant enters the module, the liquid evaporates at a low temperature, driving a turbine that converts heat energy into electricity. This makes the heat recovery process more effective and the energy is better used.
Investment in the future
Heat recovery not only generates financial benefits, but also supports the implementation of environmental protection goals. As the industry places increasing emphasis on sustainability, heat recovery technologies play a key role in energy management. Thanks to our modern solutions, companies can not only save energy, but also reduce their carbon footprint, which contributes to their long-term competitiveness.
Summary
Heat recovery is the future of energy efficiency in industrial plants. Thanks to advanced technologies offered byAxtora Energy, waste heat can be converted into electricity, bringing significant savings and supporting sustainable development.
