Waste Heat Recovery Boilers Belfast & Northern Ireland

BSH Limited integrates waste heat recovery within combination fuelled systems, recovering heat from on-site generation to drive heating, cooling or absorption chilling.

Waste Heat Recovery Boilers Belfast reflects BSH Limited's approach to capturing heat that would otherwise be rejected and putting it to useful work. BSH designs combination fuelled systems that include heating, cooling, combined heat and power, domestic and control systems as required.

A waste heat recovery boiler captures heat from an exhaust or process stream and transfers it to water or another working fluid, producing hot water or steam for heating, domestic hot water or further use. In BSH's combination fuelled systems, recovered heat can also drive absorption chilling.

Where on-site power generation is present, recovering its waste heat is what turns combined heat and power into trigeneration — producing electricity, heat and cooling from one fuel input. BSH designed and built the largest trigeneration plant room in Europe in 2012, for Tesco in Naas, Co. Kildare, Ireland.

Recovering heat within combination systems

BSH can design combination fuelled systems that include heating, cooling, combined heat and power, domestic and control systems. Waste heat recovery is specified as part of that integrated system, so recovered heat feeds heating, domestic hot water or absorption chilling rather than being rejected to atmosphere.

From CHP to trigeneration

Where recovered heat drives an absorption chiller to produce cooling, a combined heat and power system becomes trigeneration — electricity, heat and cooling from one fuel input. BSH holds the accolade for the largest trigeneration plant room in Europe in 2012, designed and built for Tesco in Naas.

Absorption chilling driven by recovered heat

Recovered heat can drive Yazaki absorption chilling — chillers that primarily utilise heat as their main power source, unlike most air conditioning equipment which use electric. BSH has received awards for creative designs featuring absorption chilling solutions demonstrated to reduce customers' carbon emissions.

How BSH can help

Problem

On sites with on-site generation or high-temperature processes, waste heat is often rejected to atmosphere rather than captured, wasting the energy content and raising fuel consumption and cost. Where heat recovery is considered in isolation rather than as part of a combination fuelled system, the opportunity to turn recovered heat into cooling through trigeneration is missed.

Reaction

Rejecting waste heat raises running cost and carbon emissions, and forfeits the efficiency available from combined heat and power and trigeneration. Building owners and consultants need a partner who designs heat recovery as part of the combination fuelled system rather than as a separate add-on.

Solution

BSH integrates waste heat recovery within combination fuelled systems, from combined heat and power to trigeneration with absorption chilling. Because the right heat-recovery configuration depends on your loads and generation, the next step is to discuss your requirements with BSH's engineers.
