Chemistry and Industry
The increasing demands in environmental protection pose complex challenges for companies in the industrial and chemical sectors.
We support you in implementing these requirements effectively and sustainably.
Through the use of externally heated water-steam cycle systems, heat recovery offers both passive and active opportunities to realize significant savings potential in energy consumption and operating costs. Together, we develop customized solutions to make your production more efficient and future-proof.
Savings potential
To achieve a sustainable recycling system, we recommend using water as a recycling medium.
The savings potential extends to both operating and capital costs. This is made possible by the reduced plant volume and potential chemical requirements within the plant – in contrast to the higher requirements that would be required for other fluids.
In a case study it became clear that the change from air to steam in drying systems results in a reduction of the required pipe dimensions to one twentieth.

Applications
Applications include distillation plants, drying plants, CHP and/or CHCC plants and much more.
Compared to organic or fluorinated circulation media, water as a circulation medium enables significantly higher temperatures. Heat pumps with water vapour circuits offer clear advantages over systems with other circulation media thanks to their wide temperature range, environmental friendliness and excellent thermodynamic properties.
