Waste Heat Recovery

At various points in an industrial operation (especially furnaces or gas turbines), flue gases/waste gases are created which still contain a high energy content which would otherwise escape into the atmosphere.

SELAS-LINDE builds plants to utilise this waste heat. The energy can be used, for example, to preheat combustion air or process gas, or for the evaporation of water.
