450°C process heat? Delivered! High-temperature process heating is advancing step by step. For a long time, around 400°C was considered the practical limit. Today, new heat transfer fluids and optimised system components are pushing that boundary significantly further. We recently had the ideal opportunity to put this development into practice.
Save €40,000 per year AND receive funding for it as well In the previous post, we showed how a customer from the food industry increased the efficiency of its system to 93 percent by installing an air preheater. As a result, the company now saves around 677,000 kWh of gas
Save €40,000 in energy costs per year – without replacing the system Did you know that heat recovery can significantly increase the efficiency of existing systems while reducing operating costs? In many cases, this requires only minimal intervention in the ongoing process and a comparatively low investment. A practical
How to Optimize Your Existing System Many operators of process heating systems are currently facing significant financial pressure. The market conditions have changed considerably, driven by factors such as high energy prices, strict emissions requirements, and increasingly limited investment budgets. As a result, investing in a new system is currently
Operators under pressure For more than 44 years, we have been engineering and manufacturing industrial process heating systems. During that time, one thing has become increasingly clear: today’s operators are under more pressure than ever before. Rising energy prices, increasing CO₂ costs, stricter emissions regulations, expanding reporting requirements, and
Reliable process heat in Australia A few weeks ago our colleague Brendan Owen was in Melbourne, Australia, to support the installation of a fired thermal oil system. The system is part of a completely new baking line for a large bakery with several branches in the Melbourne area. The new
Electrification and Thermal Energy Storage Recent developments once again highlight a key reality: oil and gas prices are, and will remain, highly volatile. For companies with significant demand for industrial process heat, this is no longer just a cost factor, but a strategic risk. The question is: how can businesses
Future-Proof Industrial Process Heat Through Electrification and Thermal Energy Storage Industrial process heat is undergoing a fundamental transformation. Volatile energy markets, increasing efficiency requirements, and the need to reduce emissions are reshaping the demands placed on industrial heat solutions. To the Interview In this interview, Patric Burkhart (AURA) and Alex
AURA has been named a Hidden Champion AURA has been officially recognized as a Hidden Champion – a distinction awarded to companies that are among the global leaders in their niche, yet operate largely outside the public spotlight. This recognition is based on a comprehensive scientific study conducted within the
How hot should process heat be today? A few weeks ago, Jakob Leicht and Nicolas Gruessert attended the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft-und Raumfahrt e.V. (Institute of Future Fuels). One takeaway stood out: high-temperature fluids beyond the classic 400°C threshold are gaining real momentum. We’re seeing the same shift in our
