Applications
With high efficiencies, we are transforming distributed energy and heat generation.
Process steam
Steam is an efficient and effective energy medium which is widely used in industry worldwide to produce everything from food to chemicals to paper and building materials.
The turbines can be coupled with steam boilers two different ways; either as pre-heaters of the boiler’s own burners or in combination with duct burner and heat recovery steam boiler.
Both installations are combined with high efficiency and very wide & flexible operation windows. This also helps the end-customer to match both the power and heat output to the that-time demand of the site.
Hot water
Our turbines have high electrical efficiency, by far highest in our class. This makes the plant operation profitable for our CHP owners even when the heat is not needed; and when it comes to the heat recovery, our turbines can be installed so that there is only one source of excess heat – the exhaust gas. This reduces the losses of the heat recovery process and improves overall efficiency.
Furthermore, the excess heat of our turbines can be released to the atmosphere if it is not required. This makes the engineering of the installation much easier and also reduces the costs of installation– not to mention the enhanced simplicity to match the plant output to real demand.
- They are heat operated – avoids expensive electrical drive
- No moving parts - reduced maintenance costs, long operational availability, noiseless operation
- The refrigerant is only water – environmentally harmful refrigerant is not required
- In combination with a turbine, cooling made this way , reduces CO2 emissions as the total efficiency of the plant increases and no power is used for cooling.
Chilling
Absorption chilling systems offer a number of advantages over conventional chilling systems and as such offer the most economically viable solution for reduced emissions and deliver cooling.
Direct current
Aurelia’s A400 turbines can
– Generate on-site DC power with multiple fuels while also providing the necessary heating and cooling.
– Generate Prime Power DC output at various voltages to directly support the DC bus at electrical efficiencies of up to 40%
Reduced or zero dependence on electricity networks
Increase business activity when local network capacity has reached its limit
Equipment reliability and durability
Ease of operation, so you can focus on your core business
Security of supply
Hydrogen and new fuels
Our products feature a modular design
With a relatively small number of changes, a significantly wide variety of gas fuels can be utilised to generate electricity using Aurelia’s class-leading IRG2 turbine process.
The main benefit of combustion in a turbine is that the combustion is initiated once at the start of the generation rather than 9000 times per minute in a 6-cylinder reciprocating engine generator.
Aurelia product benefits
- Modular design allows easy adjustments in the combustion system.
- Eliminates the need for changing other parts, materials or engine geometry to cope with specific fuels.
- Produces electrical efficiency of up to 40.2%, and up to 90% efficiency in the case of combined heat and power.
- Helps generate revenues from power and heat production.
- Offers access to renewable energy tariffs and other government incentives.
- Low maintenance and high availability result in a low cost of ownership and higher project values.
- Fully packaged turbine generator system allows simple integration with individual projects and is easy to move according to changing project capacity.
BIOGAS
the world needs different biofuels.
Not all power can be generated with just wind & solar. The main design principle of our turbines is that they are flexible to be able to match almost all the possible needs of the efficient, small scale power generator.
Due to the modular structure and its interchangeable single-can combustion chamber, Aurelia’s turbines have the flexibility to use renewable fuels like biogas.
Oil and gas
Aurelia’s offering and approach for the oil and gas industry
In addition, we deliver to our qualified partners just the main components of the turbine and control and allow them to add their specialist know-how. This results in true world-class products for even the most demanding applications.
