Kraftblock - Ecological Impact of Waste-Heat Recycling System

Recycling energy and storing energy also means climate protection. If it is possible to use energy generated once several times, primary energy sources can be saved and CO2 emissions avoided. If, for example, high-temperature waste heat is stored instead of being blown into the atmosphere and made available to a process from the storage tank in a uniform manner, the CO2 savings potential is immense. For example, 500GWh of stored waste heat (>600°C) can generate steam, preheat raw materials and supply other processes. In this way, the user saves up to 110,000 tons of CO2 per year.
