Comprehensive Showcase of Global Industrial Waste Heat Recovery Innovations & Startups
From CLIMAFIX, leader in climate innovation intelligence
Industrial Waste Heat Recovery Introduction:
Almost every industry that uses significant amounts of heat in its operations wastes a good portion of that heat – in some industries, this could amount to quite a lot. If such heat is captured and utilised, it could mean a win-win for the company and the environment.
Waste heat recovery solutions are applicable for any industry that uses significant amounts of heat for their operations – and this could mean over 75% of businesses in the manufacturing and process sectors.
Depending on the industry, the waste heat available can be low-grade / low-temperature waste heat, moderate or even high-temperature waste heat in industries such as cement and steel. Significant potential for innovation and implementation exists to recover all types of industrial waste heat.
Waste heat recovery systems need to be customised for specific applications. While these are well-developed for certain systems (for instance, boilers, diesel, and gas engines), solutions are still evolving for many others (chillers, compressors, etc).
Waste heat recovery solutions are a smart way to do good for the environment while doing economic good for companies and businesses. A key challenge is the nascent state of this industry for many waste heat capture applications. And as waste heat recovery systems need to be customised for specific applications, the lack of standards and established solution providers hamper growth in this avenue.
Innovations in the industrial waste heat recovery domain for the 2020-2030 period will be around industries using high-temperature processes, the use of digital tools, technologies to convert heat into the cold, and advances in heat recovery from low-temperature and low-grade waste heat.
