Product Description |
GET Green Energy Turbine – Gas Expansion Turbine with Generator |
The GET Green Energy Turbine is a high-efficiency solution for converting residual or waste energy into electricity. With power outputs from 5 kW to 350 kW, it’s ideal for a wide range of applications, including industrial processes, geothermal energy, and power stations. Key Benefits: High Efficiency (up to 80%): Outperforms traditional systems like piston motors or screw expanders. Low Maintenance: Direct drive system with no gearbox, reducing wear and maintenance. Flexible Applications: Works in open systems (gas expansion) or closed cycles (e.g., ORC) for energy recovery. Cost-Effective: Modular design lowers initial investment. Applications: Industrial Energy Recovery: Converts pressure energy from compressed air or gas into electricity in industries like glass, steel, and ceramics. Power Stations: Recovers waste heat from CHP plants, biogas, and furnaces, converting it into electrical power. Geothermal Energy: Converts thermal energy from the earth into electricity in geothermal plants. Waste Heat Recovery: Integrated into ORC systems for recovering heat from industrial processes. Technical Details: Power Output Range: 5 kW – 350 kW Pressure Range: 0 to 63 bar (higher pressures available on request) Temperature Range: Min. -20°C, Max. 250°C (depending on the medium used) Mediums Used: Compressed air, CO2, ORC mediums (e.g., R245fa, R-1234yf), siloxane, alkane, etc. (natural gas and steam also under development) Operational Features: Impulse and Reaction Turbine Designs: Depending on the application, the turbine can operate in impulse or reaction modes, with single or multi-stage configurations. Low-Speed Operation: The turbine can handle low-speed operations without the need for complex gear systems, enhancing reliability and longevity. Utilisation Principle: Direct Usage: The turbine recovers energy from a drop in pressure—typically from compressed gases like air or CO2—converting it directly into electrical energy. Indirect Usage: The turbine can also be used in a closed-loop cycle (e.g., ORC systems) to convert unused waste heat into electrical power. This is commonly applied in cogeneration, geothermal energy, and other industrial heat recovery systems. |
