cooled condenser in an optimised process design, resulting in an optimized system with maximum level of realised electric power from a fixed (existing) steam-flow. Te high efficiency air-cooled condenser is realised using the ultra high efficiency Whizz-Wheel fans recently introduced into the market by Bronswerk Heat Transfer. Tese fans in combination with optimal designed equipment allow an increased airflow, reduced energy consumption with reduced operational cost (Fig. 2).


Ultra low noise Te Whizz-Wheel ultra-low noise and ultra high efficiency fans were specially developed using the most sophisticated airflow simulation software, with the goal of decreasing the acoustic load on the surroundings. As a bonus they achieved enormous energy savings of more than


50 per cent, translating directly into large CO2 emission reductions.


On top of that the Whizz-Wheel weights 50 per cent less compared to conventional fan systems. Tis means a tremendous basic energy saving in terms of sustainability (Fig. 3). ●

ost thermal installations in operation today are equipped with conventional gas or oil- fired burners that use traditional control mechanisms. In the past decade there have been many important developments in both combustion technology inside the burner and in the way fuel control systems are engineered. If you are considering a retrofit, it is very important to have your installation checked

by a specialized company who can advise you on how an upgrade can affect your burner and overall system performance. The investment in latest generation equipment will typically pay for itself due to fuel cost savings alone. Furthermore, upgrading an older gas or oil control system to comply with the latest European directives and standards will lead to safer equipment, thus lowering the risks of incidents and plant downtime.
