Alfa Laval is introducing the E-PowerPack waste heat recovery system for ships. Able to convert waste heat directly into electrical power, the E-PowerPack uses Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology to reduce ship fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. The basic principle of an ORC system can be thought of as the opposite of a heat pump.

Researchers in China have developed a novel free-piston linear generator (FPLG) to recover exhaust waste heat efficiently from a vehicle engine. The two cylinders are alternately in the intake-expansion stroke and exhaust stroke. In a paper published in the journal Applied Thermal Engineering , the team from. Prototype FPLG.

Siemens is researching technologies that would allow waste heat from vehicles and industrial facilities to be used efficiently. To date, exhaust gas has generally only been used if it was hundreds of degrees Celsius hot. Here, a prototype is being used to study the potential of recovering heat from a car’s exhaust.

a Sumitomo Corporation Group company, jointly demonstrated a new waste heat recovery system based on a thermoelectric generator (TEG), which generates electrical power via exhaust gas heat. The TEG unit was installed in the exhaust pipe at the downstream of the catalyst. The demonstration test was outsourced to FEV Europe GmbH.
