Whether it’s used for drying processes in biogas production, for commissioning, boosting efficiency and emergency operation in a parabolic trough solar power plant, or for wood pellet drying and heat extraction to ORC systems: Process heat is essential for the energy sector. More specifically: process heat that offers price stability, generated in a reliable and future-proof process capable of ensuring secure and efficient system operations for decades to come.
Nothing works without process heat. So when you choose your technology, it’s best to opt for a sound, made-to-measure solution that lasts long and will continue to run efficiently 20 years from now. Here are the benefits of an HTT system:
We have installed over 250 megawatts of heat output worldwide in parabolic trough solar power plants alone.
Get the most out of your energy use! Our systems offer economical efficiency rates of up to 96%.
Our solutions are suitable for integration in every system – with their compact, hassle-free design, vertical or horizontal. The perfect fit.
Big jobs call for big performance. That’s why our heat carrier oil heaters are available with outputs up to 35 megawatts.
Every system is different. We create your custom-made solution based on your specific requirements.
Our heat carrier oil-saving solutions offer long maintenance intervals and even longer service lives.
In 2010, two diphyl heaters with an operating temperature of 400 °C were required for the construction of two new 50-megawatt solar thermal power plants in Écija, Andalusia. HTT built two WTÖ 25.000 with air preheaters into the parabolic trough solar power plant. We also produced the chimney, the control unit and the entire steel construction.
The biogas plant in the city of Karben in southern Hesse needs process heat to dry the biogas. HTT installed a WTÖ 500 with biogas burner and waste gas heat exchanger as a compact plug and play solution in the tank. The solution also featured an ADB 750, SAB 1.000, control unit and chimney – all from our German production facilities. Since then, every hour, the plant has supplied 800 kW of electricity to the grid and up to 370 m3 of biomethane to the local supplier’s gas network.
In Croatia, wood-burning is not an unusual method of generating electricity. For a customer in the lakeside city of Fužine, we supplied a WTÖ-FS 8.500 flue gas heater for a plant producing this type of energy. Thanks to heat extraction from wood burning, it supplies heat to dry the pellets and for heating the ORC system for power generation.
