Energy Recovery System - Case Study
Addfield collaborated with an energy recovery company and one of the UK’s largest landscaping and recycling companies to produce the innovative idea of creating energy from waste. Some things cannot be recycled so instead of sending these to a landfill they are incinerated and reused to create hot water and electricity. This is then used to heat and power the garden centre whilst ...

Entropy generation metric for evaluating and forecasting aircraft energy management systems
A general Entropy Generation Minimisation (EGM) technique is applied to analyse the feasibility of energy recovery from aircraft avionics via thermoelectric (TE) devices. In employing this approach, a suitable control volume definition is chosen to evaluate the impact of an energy recovery system on the overall entropy generation of the aircraft over a mission. Only those systems which are ...

Make sure your waste is not wasted
Here’s how a waste to energy incinerator can actually save you money For many companies, industrial and commercial waste disposal is viewed as a necessary but unpopular & unwanted expense. For others, however, quite the opposite is true. Efficient waste disposal is recognised not only as an important duty to help protect the environment, but it is also seen as an opportunity to ensure ...

Case study - Air-to-water heat exchanger reduces operating costs by $120,000 per year
OVERVIEW This pharmaceutical company had a 5,000 SCFM oxidizer that they were looking to relocate to another facility across the United States. The destruction rate efficiency and heat recovery expectation at the new location differed from the original design conditions at the current facility. ACTION An Anguil field service engineer went to site to inspect the unit. A report detailing the ...

Case study - Air-to-air heat exchanger provides plant heat and big savings
OVERVIEW A food processing facility installed a new Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) for odor control from its roasting operation. The oxidizer was designed for 95% thermal rate of efficiency and included supplemental fuel injection (SFI) which is used during low VOC loading conditions, to help save fuel cost. The customer was looking at additional ways to further reduce their operating ...

Closing the last Energy Leak
The heat contained in wastewater is one of the last major untapped resources in the field of renewable energies, despite the fact that it may some day provide some 20% of the heating energy we need. This huge potential has been addressed by a Swiss engineering office, Rabtherm AG, which now supplies patented technology for generating energy from wastewater, used for heating or cooling buildings. ...

Case study - Waste heat generates steam and savings
OVERVIEW A coil coating facility purchased a new a 15,000 SCFM Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) which had a nominal heat transfer efficiency rate of 90% thermal energy recovery. It was designed with supplemental fuel injection (SFI) which is used during low VOC loading conditions, to help save fuel cost. The facility was looking for additional ways to decrease their exhaust air temperature ...

At the heart of every crematorium is the cremator
That’s why more and more crematory operators speak to us even before they draw up their plans Nothing makes more sense really does it? Yet you’d be surprised at just how often we are approached by a crematory operator, who, having designed the crematorium building itself, suddenly seems to realise that they need a cremator that will fit into the space allocated. Yes, of course, ...

Energy recovery potential using micro hydropower in water supply networks in the UK and Ireland
The supply and treatment of water is a highly energy intensive process, resulting in large amounts of greenhouse gas emissions as well as incurring large economic costs. Both governments and water service providers worldwide recognise the need for more sustainable water supply systems. In recent years, the use of hydropower turbines within water supply networks has been shown as a viable option ...

Case study - Oxidizer energy recovery options
Overview The mainstream media today is full of allusions to energy awareness and conservation. Just as visible these days are media references to astronomical dollar figures that can boggle the mind. This article does not seek to break out of that mold, but rather to conform to it – as Oxidizer Stack Heat Recovery offers a tremendous opportunity for both energy conservation and energy ...

Biogas Cleaning
Removal of water vapor Origin In the biogas production process, water is an intrinsic part of both the material to be digested (biomass) and the process itself. Furthermore, water is the medium in which biogas production takes place, regardless of whether the digestion process is dry or wet, the biogas produced will contain water vapour. The amount of water vapour contained in the biogas ...

The problem of NOx emissions
The problem of NOx emissions The problem with Nitrogen compounds (NOx) emissions is that they contribute to generating the greenhouse effect. For example, N2O causes 300 times more damage than CO2. In addition, NOx combines with the humidity of the air in the atmosphere and is the cause of acid rain and is therefore very dangerous for the environment. ...
