Organic rankine cycle module for energy recovery
Harness waste heat to generate electricity and compressed air while significantly reducing carbon emissions with advanced Organic Rankine Cycle technology, seamlessly integrated into your existing processes.
The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Energy Recovery Module from GEA revolutionizes industrial heat management by converting waste heat into electricity. Utilizing a working fluid with a low boiling point, the ORC module efficiently pumps, evaporates, and condenses in a closed-loop system to drive a turbine generator. This process significantly reduces your facility’s carbon footprint and energy costs. Ideal for energy, oil, gas, and chemical industries, it integrates seamlessly with existing production lines and offers continuous automated operation. The ORC module is flexible for retrofitting in tight spaces and compatible with multiple cooling options, ensuring optimal performance in various industrial environments. Additionally, it supports easy maintenance and rapid returns on investment through sustainable energy savings.
