Hy.REC®: gas recycling
Our gas recycling solution
Our Hy.REC® systems are supplied with in-house technology. The below image is an illustrative representation of a Hy.REC® system.
Features
- Reliable gas supply
- High return on investment
- Effortlessly integrated
- Reduced environmental impact
- Specifically for the glass market
- Improved glass quality
Tailored for flat glass manufacturing
Unlike other solutions, the Hy.REC® is specifically designed for the glass market. Ensuring the focus of our technology aligns with the specific demands of glass production, securing optimal energy recovery performance. Our Hy.REC® system is operational at leading glass manufacturing plants worldwide, consistently delivering reliable results. The system utilizes TSA technology and has a low energy usage and low OPEX costs.
Enhanced glass quality
Gas recycling provides a clear competitive advantage for manufacturers looking to future-proof their operations. By capturing and recycling hydrogen and nitrogen from the glass production process, it lowers operational costs and enhances glass quality. While helping manufacturers meet sustainability goals and regulatory standards. Through our tailored and prefrabicated design, the system ensures an effortless integration.
Improved glass quality in Saudi Arabia
This glass factory in Saudi Arabia secures a more sustainable and cost-effective way of producing glass with our Hy.REC® gas recycling system. The Hy.REC® increases the quality of the produced glass and cleans and re-uses the contaminated gas in the process. CO₂ emissions and operational production costs are reduced by decreasing gas supply volumes. This system is designed to recover the protective atmosphere from the tin bath in float glass production. The technology purifies and recovers a hydrogen-nitrogen gas mixture from the production process and has a maximum flow of 700 Nm3/hr of hydrogen-nitrogen.
Improved energy efficiency
The Hy.REC® stands out in terms of energy efficiency and recovery rates. Through a self-cleaning heat exchanger, along with separation and purification technologies. The self-cleaning heat exchanger and eliminates the usage of a water scrubber. Meaning a decrease in electricity usage, because the gas does not become saturated with water. Minimizing energy consumption and a higher hydrogen and nitrogen recovery. Translating into greater cost savings and improved operational efficiency.
