Know-how in industrial heat pumps

• Among the pioneers in Europe and realizing some of the first installations, we have now built 30+ years of understanding and experience in the steadily growing sector of industrial heat pumps.

Timely solution for low-carbon process heat needs

• With increasing CO2 and fossil-fuel prices, and a broader renewables footprint in the electricity mix, industrial heat pumps will be a key factor in achieving a more sustainable heat-generation approach in the future.

Water and steam: Upgrading waste heat sources with electrical power

From process heat to space or district heating – these days, thermal heat makes up a significant portion of energy demand across Europe, with about two thirds of that heat being produced using fossil fuels. As a result, industrial process heat is responsible for about 20 percent of CO2 emissions across Europe.

Industrial heat pumps help to upcycle low-temperature waste heat sources (such as river water, sewage water, process wastewater and warm drying air or steam). With the use of a fraction of the electric power to drive the heat pump (typical 20-40%), and with no CO2 emitted, this upgraded waste heat can be re-used in a process with the lowest environmental impact possible.

The efficiency of a heat pump is expressed by the COP — Coefficient of Performance. It depends on the temperature lift between heat source and sink, but also on other aspects, such as fluid and size of the heat pump. Usual values for a COP are between 2 and 4.
