Assignment name

DECAGONE Project – ORC innovative technology development.

Name of the client

Trinecke Zelezarny a.s., Trinec

Short description

Energy efficiency of intensive industrial processes and particularly waste heat recovery technologies have been identified international and regional organization like IEA, EU or ADEME in France as a major game changer for CO2 emissions reduction. The DECAGONE consortium led by ENERTIME proposes a project demonstrating the potential of ORC technology in waste heat-to-power conversion for self-consumption of industrial plants at a large industrial scale.

Targeting the waste heat potential of the company TŘINECKÉ ŽELEZÁRNY (mother company of partner Energetika Trinec), located in Czech Republic and historical manufacturer of iron & steel, the DECAGONE project will develop an innovative ORC-based WHR system using enhanced capture designs and disruptive turbomachinery. The proposed hermetic turbogenerator design will run on innovative active magnetic bearings for increased compacity, higher availability and safety and cost reduction with near-zero maintenance. Dedicated studies improve organic fluids or mixtures for higher stability and improved transposability to other industries. The project will also provide advanced monitoring using innovative probes, IOT and machine learning algorithms for real-time efficiency improvement.
