Waste Heat Recovery & Renewable Energy Systems

Waste Heat Recovery & Renewable Energy Systems

We believe that reuse of waste materials and waste energy is essential for protecting the environment which belongs to future generations.

TRANSTERM Endüstriyel Enerji A.Ş. has a competent technical team consisting of experts with more than 20 years of experience in the field of energy. Our fields of expertise include energy efficiency, renewable energy and waste-derived energy solutions.

We develop renewable energy projects in various fields: combined heat and energy, biogas plants, landfill gas plants, waste heat recovery facilities and more.

Thanks to our expertise in developing strategic partnerships and integrated solutions, TRANSTERM Endüstriyel Enerji A.Ş. can provide turn-in-key projects for renewable energy systems from the initial design stage to successful system operations. In addition to developing projects, we finance, implement, undertake construction as well as operation and maintenance after completion.

We do not rely on a single equipment or technology provider, thus we are always sure that we can provide our clients with the most suitable and cutting-edge custom-made solutions. We provide our services to municipalities as well as industrial sectors, and our projects are supported with full performance guarantees.

Cogeneration and Trigeneration Systems (CHP)

Combined heat and power (CHP) combines generation of usable heat and power (electricity) in a single and highly efficient system. CHP captures the usable heat generated during electricity generation. This is much more advantageous compared to the conventional electricity generation methods in which large amounts of heat is wasted.

At present coal and natural gas-fired power plants, approximately two-third of the total energy consumed is usually wasted as a steam cloud over cooling towers. Trigeneration is use of a CHP unit combined with an absorption chiller  to provide electricity, heat and cooling. Buildings with continual or seasonal cooling demand can use trigeneration as a cost-efficient and low-carbon method for meeting their heat and cooling demands.

Waste Heat Recovery Systems (WHR)

Electricity generation through recovery and conversion of wasted heat.

AIncreasing energy costs and global concerns about greenhouse gases and CO2 emissions trigger a trend towards all alternative energy sources.  Waste heat recovery also has a great potential no less than the well-known alternative energy sources such as wind, solar, jeothermal and biomass energy. Use for industrial purposes counts for nearly 30% of the total energy consumption. Approximately 20-50% of the industrial energy consumption is estimated to be released to the atmosphere as waste heat. It is economically possible to recover this waste heat and convert it into electricity.

Oil, gas, coal or electricity are used for heating in industrial processes. Furnaces, heaters, boilers, reformers, reactors, lime furnaces etc. processes  Release heat into the atmosphere through exhaust gases. Exhaust gases at high temperatures (> 300 ° C) are used for preliminary heating or cogeneration with CHP technologies. However, exhaust gases at lower temperatures can also be recovered and converted into electricity.

WHR Systems technology is based on Rankine cycle which is the fundamental classical thermodynamic cycle of thermal power plants. This thermodynamic cycle is run by an operating fluid. The most suitable technology, Steam Rankine Cycle (SRC) or Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), is selected upon analysis of many evaluation criteria. It is ideal for the steel industry, glass industry, cement industry and fertilizer manufacturing plants.

Anaerobic Digestion

Anaerobic digestion is the process by which organic matter such as animal or food waste is broken down to produce biogas and biofertilizer. This process happens in the absence of oxygen in a sealed, oxygen-free tank called an anaerobic digester.

The solution we propose are reliable, efficient and flexible, capable of processing a wide variety of different feedstock inputs. AD technology allows conversion of organic waste into green energy, turning a possible disposal cost into a revenue stream, thus developing sustainable business whilst significantly reducing imported energy consumption.

Thanks to our expertise in developing strategic partnerships and integrated solutions, we can provide turn-in-key projects for anaerobic digestion and composting systems from the initial design stage to successful system operations. We provide our services to municipalities as well as industrial sectors, and our projects are supported with complete performance guarantees.

Biomass

Biomass is a renewable resource that can provide significant savings in areas with access to high amounts of wood waste and limited access to natural gas.

Our experts will assist you in selecting the optimum machine that meets all your application requirements while at the same time minimizing the overall investment costs.

We include biomass in our energy performance projects, and assist our clients to choose their biomass suppliers and negotiate desirable supply agreements
