KPA Unicon - Model HRSG - Heat Recovery Steam Generator System
Save energy and money at the same time. A heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) is a type of heat exchanger that captures lost heat from a hot gas stream and then uses it to produce steam energy. This valuable energy can be recovered from many sources: a gas turbine used in energy production, a processed gas stream used in a variety of industrial processes or even a waste gas stream from an incineration plant.
- MODEL: UNICON HRSG
- Boiler: Natural circulation water tube boiler
- Capacity: 30 - 300 t/h
- Boiler size: 10 - 100 MW
- Pressure: up to 100 bar
- Temperature: up to 500 °C
- Fuels: Heat source is combustion gases generated by gas turbines. Natural gas with auxiliary burner
- Burner equipment: Possibility for supplementary firing to ensure required steam temperature with gas turbine´s partial load or during cold season
- Flue gas temperature: 120 - 200 °C
Increased energy production is a key benefit of a heat recovery system. Heat recovered from a hot gas stream can be utilized to produce steam energy used in a process (cogeneration) or to drive a steam turbine (combined cycle). It’s your energy so why pay for additional fuel costs when you already have that energy “on tap”?
Big, small, everyone can recover wasted heat streams
Energy producers, metal refineries, pulp and paper plants, to name a few, all produce heat streams that can be recovered and put to good use. How good? Our HRSG solutions produce hot water and steam up to 300 t/h. And we manufacture two types of KPA Unicon boilers to make it happen. A vertical boiler that is more compact in structure which is ideal for smaller plants, even indoor facilities. And a horizontal boiler which is primarily utilized in larger plants. No matter what your size, if you have a wasted heat stream we’ll find the most efficient way to recover it and repurpose it.
Not our first rodeo
Tailor-made solutions backed by decades of experience.
Heat recovery solutions still sound like something from the future. And to many people they still are. But we’re proud to say that we’re one of the pioneers, true facilitators of clean energy adoption all around the world. In fact, we have decades of experience making custom heat recovery systems for the energy industry.
Process streams are rarely alike. It’s why we tailor each heat recovery system to suit our customer’s individual needs and technical requirements. Our engineering experience is what separates us from our competitors. We work closely with our customers and we engineer the most efficient, cost-effective solution for your energy production needs. And we are experts at installing our solutions while minimizing downtime for our customers.
Recovering wasted heat streams is a “no-brainer” energy management solution. If you have existing heat streams, why not put them to good use? Whatever energy you recover is energy you don’t have to purchase. And you generate energy for your factory heat, steam and power needs. That plus the fact that KPA Unicon HRSG systems can be in service for 15 to 30 years and longer are proof that they make good financial sense over the long run, especially considering the cost of emissions will only increase over time.
That’s the great thing about our business, both today and for the future – whether it’s for people, the planet, or your bottom line, clean energy solutions just make sense.
