The Reality of Flaring. The flaring of methane is commonplace at many landfills, biogas and wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), and oil and gas well sites across the globe. Industries routinely flare to dispose of unwanted gases and to prevent pressure build up. Not only are these flares a waste of…

What is “Cooling to Power”?
As the heat load is reduced, this allows cooling to power systems to prioritize the generation of clean electricity. When the cooling load increases the system will automatically adjust power output to fulfill engine cooling requirements, maintaining engine cooling independent of the generator’s operating status.
Landfills Can Easily Increase Efficiency With Cooling To Power
Across the globe, engines see extensive use at landfills for their ability to make the most of waste and generate renewable power from available biogas. These engines typically run continuously, generating a considerable amount of heat. This heat is not only a waste of energy but a huge burden, stealing…
ORC Waste Heat Recovery Benefits
Waste heat is all around us and comes in many forms, from engine jacket water and heat from industrial processes to thermal oils and flue gases. When you take advantage of waste heat you are utilizing an immense, virtually untapped resource. With ElectraTherm’s advancements in Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) low-temperature…
