The flue gas ORC
The flue gas ORCs can be installed successfully everywhere where flue gases from the technological process or waste heat in the form of hot air > 350 °C leave through a chimney, without any further use. The fact is that the flue gas ORC behaves as an ordinary flue gas heat exchanger. By installing the flue gas ORC you obtain both the production of electric energy for covering your own consumption in the enterprise premises, but also heat in the form of hot water of temperature up to 90 °C. Thanks to these two commodities you can include this ORC technology in the category of combined production of electricity and heat – KVET. It only depends on the operator in which KVET regime it will operate ORC.
The output of cooling water from ORC has parameters from 55 °C to 90 °C. Thus, it is easy to achieve the operation of the flue gas ORC in the regime of combined production of electricity and heat.
Flue gases from the ORC system further exit via a chimney of temperature of approx. 180 °C – 210 °C. This is also the temperature to which the efficiency of the whole system is additionally calculated that is approx. 18 - 22%. Thanks to characteristics and temperature parameters of flue gas ORCs, the ambient temperature has a de facto negligible impact on the ORC system efficiency.
Advantages:

|
- Possibility to use contributions for KVET for the production of electric energy and heat from ORC
- Savings of costs of hall heating etc. by connecting the hot water circuit from ORC to the building heating system

ORC e-box POWER
ORC e-box Vario

→ ORC e-box POWER operates with flue gaseswithin the range 350 - 520 °C. Thermal power at the input to the ORC e-box POWER is 450 -990 kW while the electrical output power is 50 - 180 kWe, depending on the input heat fed into the ORC system.
.
An example of installation is a combination of the ORC system with a CHP unit. A great advantage is the ORC can be connected directly to the chimney flue gas pipe of the process. This eliminates the need to use a flue gas heat exchanger. Flue gases are passed directly to the ORC heat exchanger. The internal medium is not water, but an organic substance. It is heated to about 320 °C and when entering the turbine blades of the ORC it moves the turbine to speeds up to 28,000 rpm.
The connected asynchronous generator begins to generate electric power. Through the use of high temperatures directly from the flue gas, ORC e-box POWER achieves an efficiency of around 20%! This value puts ORC e-box POWER among the leaders in this technology. In the cooling circuit, the heat power is equal to 80% of the input heat power with the temperature gradient of about 55 °C - 35 °C. These are not random parameters as they provide the client with the possibility of using this potent i a l to heat the d i g e s t e r s , swimming pools, sludge pits, etc. The recovered flue gas coming out of the ORC flue gas pipe has a temperature of about 180°C.
→ The main reason why the ORC e-box VARIO system was launched onto the market was a high demand amongst potential clients for the use of heat to generate not only electrical energy, but also to use hot water for heating..
→ Variability of the ORC e-box VARIO operation enables the user to evaluate when the supply of heat into the heating system is a priority, or when it is more practical to maximize the production of electricity.
ORC e-box VARIO is technically identical to the e-box type, but it offers an additional feature of controlling the temperature of ORC cooling water so as to achieve different temperature levels. The settings can be changed online, depending on the operating conditions.
The ORC e-box VARIO system can be used with biogas plants (apart from other applications) which already have a supply of heat in place or which are planning it. By deploying the ORC e-box VARIO system, it is possible to streamline the entire operation and in the winter months to control the supply of heat ver sus electr icity production from ORC.
