Power recovering turbines
Recover energy from Pressure Release Valve (PRV) in mining or industrial facilities using micro turbines
Innovative. Disruptive.
Replacing valves by turbines
Recover dissipated energy
Long life & zero downtime
Save tons of CO2 yearly
Major OPEX savings
Turbine replacing valves
Typical metrics
75kW
recovered energy
Assuming 15kW per valve on average
150k$
saved per year
Replacing a diesel generator costing an average of $0.33 / kWh.
500t of CO2
saved per year
Replacing a diesel generator releasing 1 ton of CO2 per MWh.
Select number of valves:
5 valves
Energy recovering turbine
Each pressure release valve dissipates an average 15kW of constant energy. A micro turbine can recover that lost energy at low cost, while reducing downtimes.
| Typical pressure limit: | 50-100 psi |
| Typical pipe diameter: | 4-8 in |
| At 100 psi pressure flow: | 5-50 l/sec |
| Dissipated energy: | 15 kW / valve |
