Waste heat from industrial processes, together with residual heat from heat and power production and waste incineration, represent significant energy resources that today are frequently neglected.
In addition to energy losses and decreased system performance, cooling residual heat also consumes additional primary electric energy.
Opcon Powerbox is a mobile stand-alone power plant that transforms waste heat and costs for cooling into emission-free power production and new revenues.
Solid industrial components and easy installation, together with microprocessor controls, and remote operation result in high operational reliability.
Climate changes and the emerging need to reduce CO2 and other emissions, call for increased environmental concern on a national and global level.
Opcon Powerbox contributes towards meeting their end-user's environmental and energy efficiency commitments, while improving system performance and profitability at the same time.
By utilizing waste and residual heat, new power production is both fuel and emission free. This makes Opcon Powerbox eligible for green certificates, feed-in tariffs, energy efficiency commitments and emission trading.
- Opcon Powerbox produces electricity from waste water at a temperature range of 50-95° - An average Opcon Powerbox generates 3 400 MWh of electricity per year - 3 400 MWh = 340 cubic metres of oil = 2,100 barrels of oil - A coal-fired condensing power plant emits around 3,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide when generating the same amount of electricity as an average Opcon Powerbox, which causes zero emissions - Electricity from an average Opcon Powerbox is sufficient to heat around 300 normal homes - An average Opcon Powerbox produces the same amount of electricity as the largest wind turbine
