Waste Heat Recovery System In Ships

The waste heat recovery system can be optimized to meet a required level of efficiency and tailored for the specified propulsion plant.

Waste heat recovery system in ships.

The energy technologies institute eti has launched a new project which aims to develop and demonstrate a waste heat recovery system for ships that could deliver fuel efficiency savings of at. The whru is a tool involved in cogeneration waste heat may be extracted from sources such as hot flue gases from a diesel generator steam from cooling towers or even waste water from. Waste heat recovery systems waste heat recovery systems recover the thermal energy from the exhaust gas and convert it into electrical energy while the residual heat can further be used for ship services such as hot water and steam. This paper describes the technology behind waste heat recovery and the potential for ship owners to lower fuel costs cut emissions and the effect on the eedi of the ship.

The system can consist of an exhaust gas boiler or combined with oil fired boiler a power turbine and or a. Our extensive experience lets us design and install systems that maximize energy gains without any compromise in onboard safety. A waste heat recovery system compris ing both steam and power turbines and combined with utilising scavenge air energy for exhaust boiler feed water heating. Together with an estimation of fuel cost and the vessel s operational profile it is possible to pre calculate the payback time for the system.
