In gas turbines or industrial energy generation systems, exhaust gases are produced with temperatures of several hundred degrees Celsius. In many facilities, this thermal energy is released unused into the atmosphere. By redirecting this waste heat, it becomes possible to recover energy and convert it into usable process heat. As a result, waste heat recovery can make production not only more efficient but also more sustainable.
AURA develops and supplies customized Waste Heat Recovery Units (WHRU) for the utilization of turbine exhaust gases, enabling maximum energy efficiency and significantly reductions in operating costs.
System Properties:
The AURA waste heat recovery system for turbines can make the heat contained in turbine exhaust gases usable in a temperature range of up to 430 °C for other processes. Flue gases with lower temperatures can also be utilized by installing an additional afterburner. The system can generate an output of up to 15.000 kW.
Gas turbines generate energy, at the same time, exhaust gases are produced with temperatures typically between 400-600°C or higher. AURA´s WHRU utilizes this energy:
The system is precisely designed by AURA based on:
In continuous turbine operation with stable exhaust gas temperatures and sufficient exhaust gas volume flow.
Thermal oil, water or steam, depending on process requirements.
Yes, integration into existing systems is possible.
Since less additional fuel is required, direct CO2 emissions are significantly reduced.
This depends on the heat consumers and their operating temperatures. In many cases, a large portion of the available energy can be utilized.
Yes, storage solutions increase flexibility and improve load balancing.
