Electricity from Waste Heat with Cyplan®

A fully hermetic working fluid circuit prevents any leakage of the working fluid, protecting the environment, conserving resources, and ensuring reliable, uninterrupted operation.

The robust, single-stage Cyplan® turbine is engineered for maximum efficiency and dependable performance. Its advanced design enables electricity generation even at partial loads as low as 20%, maximizing energy recovery under varying operating conditions.

Cyplan® ORC systems can simultaneously generate electricity and usable heat, achieving overall efficiencies of more than 95% when recovered heat is utilized. The secondary heat can be used for applications such as heating or drying, increasing energy utilization without affecting the primary process.

Designed for exceptional versatility, Cyplan® ORC systems can utilize a wide range of heat transfer media, including flue gas, thermal oil, molten salt, saturated steam, and hot water. This flexibility allows seamless integration into diverse industrial processes and applications.

Cyplan® ORC systems are built for reliable operation and minimal maintenance. Easy access to key components, readily available spare parts, and remote monitoring capabilities help reduce operating costs, simplify maintenance planning, and ensure optimal system performance at all times.

In general, ORC technology is suitable for many industrial processes that generate continuous waste heat. Whether your site is technically and economically suitable for the use of an Envanio Cyplan® ORC system depends primarily on the amount of available heat, the temperature level, and the operating hours. Our experts will work with you to analyze your site’s potential and develop a customized solution.

Even waste heat at a comparatively low temperature can be used economically to generate electricity with an Envanio Cyplan® ORC system. However, actual economic viability depends on several factors, such as the amount of available heat and the annual operating hours. As part of a customized potential analysis, we determine the economic potential of your application.

No. Envanio Cyplan® ORC systems use only the waste heat already generated by your process. No additional fuel is required for electricity generation.

Envanio Cyplan® ORC systems generate electricity from existing waste heat, thereby reducing the need to purchase electricity from external sources. Since electricity is generated without the use of additional fuel, your site’s carbon footprint improves, and you actively contribute to achieving your sustainability and ESG goals.

Yes. Envanio Cyplan® ORC systems are frequently integrated into existing plants as retrofit solutions. This approach utilizes the existing waste heat without significantly altering the actual production process. As a result, existing energy potential can be tapped quickly and efficiently.

In most cases, no significant changes to the existing production process are required. Our experts integrate the Envanio Cyplan® ORC system in such a way that existing interfaces are utilized optimally, and ongoing operations remain as unaffected as possible.

Envanio Cyplan® ORC systems can generally be operated reliably even with fluctuating exhaust air volumes. Since the working fluid circulates in a closed loop, it does not come into direct contact with the exhaust air and is therefore protected from contamination. ORC systems can also be used with contaminated or polluted exhaust air streams. If the exhaust air requires additional treatment or if legal emission requirements are not met, Envanio offers complementary air pollution control solutions from a single source.
