With a wide range of power output options between 30 and 300 kW, Qbivio can offer a special solution for any application that requires heat recovery and energy production.
Waste heat recovery is the process of capturing and using the excess heat that is generated by industrial processes or equipment. This excess heat is typically released into the environment, where it goes to waste. However, with the right technology, it is possible to capture and use this waste heat to generate electricity, reducing the need for fossil fuels and mitigating green house gas emissions. One of the technologies that is well-suited for waste heat recovery is the Micro Organic Rankine Cycle (Micro ORC)
By using the Micro ORC system to capture and convert this waste heat into electricity, the ship was able to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels by approximately 15%. This equated to a fuel cost savings of approximately $500,000 per year and a reduction of 3,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions. In 2020, the shipping industry was responsible for approximately 2% of global energy-related CO2 emissions. To address this, the IMO has implemented regulations targeting a 40% reduction in the carbon intensity of international shipping by 2030 and a 70% reduction by 2050.
One of the key advantages of using the Micro ORC system for repurposing of abandoned oil and gas wells to generate electricity and heat from geothermal heat.
•Many petroleum wells benefit from a natural geothermal gradient, where the temperature increases as the depth of the well increases. This geothermal heat can be effectively captured and converted into electricity using the Micro ORC system.
