Industrial effluent heating and waste heat recovery for energy reuse with heat pumps.
Industrial effluent treatment often requires heating for biological processes, anaerobic digestion, or simply to meet disposal requirements. Simultaneously, hot effluents represent a source of wasted heat that can be recovered by heat pumps. Helioterm's HTW line is ideal for both scenarios.
Hot effluents (30–50°C) are an excellent heat source for HTW, resulting in high COP.
Heats the process while cooling the effluent, meeting thermal discharge requirements.
Removable plate heat exchanger allows cleaning and inspection, essential for effluents with solids.
Energy recovery that would otherwise be wasted, reducing total plant consumption.
| Recommended model | HTW-15 a HTW-50 (15–50 TR) |
| Source temperature (effluent) | 25–50°C (the hotter, the higher the COP) |
| Outlet temperature | 60–90°C as needed |
| Recommended exchanger | Removable plate (mandatory for effluents) |
| Typical COP | 3.0–3.4 (hot source increases COP) |
Effluent treatment plants, industries with hot effluents (textile, paper, food), industrial laundries, and any facility with potential for waste heat recovery.
