Energy-efficiency in heat treatment and industrial furnace technology
24.04.2023
Heat treatment and/or hardening processes are subject to a more or less high energy consumption and accordingly produce large amounts of CO2. It is estimated that about 40 % of the energy used in the industry is consumed for all thermal processes in corresponding plants and industrial furnaces.
Development of a modular thermal storage system for industrial waste heat
19.12.2022
In the „ModulHeatStore“ research project, a consortium of companies and research institutions has developed a modular heat storage system for the efficient and economical storage of industrial waste heat at high temperatures of up to 1,200 °C. The system is based on a combination of sensible and reliable heat storage systems.
