ENERGY RECOVERY, THE NEW FRONTIER |
|
|
COGENERATION AND TRIGENERATION
|
|
The term “cogeneration”,
means the combined production of electrical and thermal
energy using conventional fuels such as natural gas or
Diesel.
This technology allows us to efficiently exploit the energy
contained in the fuel used, avoiding dispersing heat which
has not been used into the atmosphere.
A reduction in energy consumption and pollution emissions
into the atmosphere is also achieved.
The electrical and heating needs of commercial, residential and
industrial sites can thus be satisfied (wholly or in part)
by recovering heat that is produced in the operating of an
internal combustion engine joined to an electric synchronous
three-phase generator (power unit).
Trigeneration may be considered an evolution of the cogeneration process.
Trigeneration can be defined as the conversion of a single
fuel source into three energy products: electricity, steam
or hot water and chilled water, with lower pollution and
greater efficiency than producing the three products
separately.
