Heat Exchangers for Generator Set Heat Recovery

Genset heat recovery is the process of improving overall energy efficiency by capturing and reusing the heat generated during the power generation process. This usually involves capturing waste heat during the power generation process and using it for other purposes such as heating, steam production or other industrial processes. Below are some common aspects associated with heat recovery in generating units:

Waste Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG): In some power stations, waste heat can be used to generate steam, which can be used to generate electricity or heat.An HRSG is a piece of equipment that captures heat and converts it into steam to generate additional electricity.

Heat Recovery Systems: Heat recovery systems work by absorbing waste heat and using it for other processes or applications such as heating, hot water production or air conditioning. This can be achieved through a heat exchanger, where the waste heat is transferred to other media to make it hotter.

Combined Heat and Power (CHP): A CHP system, also known as cogeneration or co-generation, is a system that produces both electricity and heat from the same energy source. In such systems, waste heat is often used for heating or other industrial processes.

Ground source heat pump systems: Some power plants may use ground source heat pump systems to use waste heat to heat or cool buildings and improve energy efficiency.
