Flue Gas Condensation
We have taken the recovery of energy one step further. By cooling the flue gas to below its dew point, it is possible to recover large quantities of latent heat. If the flue gas temperature after the boiler is approximately 150ºC it is possible by means of flue gas condensation, to increase the recovered heat by up to 20%.
Condensation may take place either as a direct heat exchange between gas and district heating water, in some cases utilizing an intermediate cooling water circuit, and/or by using an intermediate heat pump. For optimum energy efficiency, a combination of these methods are used.
The flue gas condensation can be combined with ADIOX® tower packings in the scrubber stages for dioxin removal and memory-effect prevention.
Absorption Technology
We supply absorption heat pumps for enhanced energy recovery (as described above) and absorption chillers to produce profitable comfort cooling in the summer. The chillers are placed locally in properties or centrally in a district cooling system and use excess heat from the district heating network as the energy source. The installation requires very little maintenance. Besides the financial gains, the technology is eco-friendly and helps in reducing CO2 emissions.
Water Treatment
Our total system experience includes designing and supplying technologies to treat the waste water from scrubbers to minimize and potentially eliminate the discharge of harmful substances into waste water treatment systems or to the environment.
