Waste Heat Boiler — Efficient Heat Recovery for Industrial Processes
A Waste Heat Boiler is a specialized system designed to recover waste heat generated from industrial processes or other equipment and convert it into useful thermal energy. Unlike conventional boilers, it does not rely on external fuel sources, but instead utilizes low-grade heat from flue gases, exhaust streams, or other waste energy sources to generate steam or hot water. This significantly improves overall energy efficiency and reduces operational energy consumption.
These systems are ideal for small to medium-scale heat recovery applications and are widely adopted across various industries. Waste heat boilers are highly cost-effective and can be custom-engineered to suit a wide range of heat recovery scenarios.
Ideal Conditions for Applying Waste Heat Boilers:
-
There must be a demand for steam
-
Presence of low-grade waste heat, such as flue gas between 200 °C and 400 °C
-
Existing water treatment systems can be reused
-
Heat can be recovered from process waste heat, exhaust gas, or similar sources
-
Even below 200 °C, effective steam generation is possible when combined with a steam compressor
