BABCOCK WANSON RELEASES SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS BROCHURE
SUPPORTING SUSTAINABILITY IN THE UK CAST METALS SECTOR
A T
he Babcock Wanson Group, of which industrial process heating equipment and solutions specialist Babcock Wanson UK is a founding company, has released a new brochure covering its many and varied sustainable solutions. As a major international supplier of boiler rooms and associated equipment, operating in more than 13 countries, Babcock Wanson Group has become a major player when it comes to energy transition, offering increasingly carbon-free heat production solutions for industry. Its ambition is to enable customers to reduce their fossil fuel consumption and achieve their targets for reducing their environmental footprint. The energy transition solutions deployed by the Group’s brands are built around four major pillars, which are explained within the new brochure: decarbonisation, energy performance, reduction of polluting emissions, and recovery and re-use. Decarbonisation is being addressed by Babcock Wanson Group through the development of alternative solutions to the use of fossil fuels in steam and hot water production. This includes a range of electric boilers which have been introduced over recent year; hybrid solutions that allow customers to use the best available energy source at any given time; and combustion solutions based on renewable energy such as hydrogen, biogas and oxycombustion. These are detailed within the new sustainable solutions brochure.
For existing boilers, Babcock Wanson Group is addressing energy performance by optimising several aspects: ensuring seamless matching of burners with the heated vessel; adapting water treatment to the quality of the water available; and remote monitoring of heating systems. Combined, these actions reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, reducing NOx and CO₂ emissions in the process.

This latter aspect forms part of the Group’s commitment to reducing polluting emissions. This is taken one step further through the provision of equipment specifically designed to capture and eliminate air pollutants generated by industrial installations. Its thermal oxidation solutions, including regenerative, recuperative and deodorising options outlined in the brochure, are highly effective at treating VOCs and odours. The last pillar in Babcock Wanson Group’s energy transition plan, recovery and re-use looks at best practice in managing natural resources. The Group’s solution to water management issues is to provide solutions for recovering and reintegrating part of the water discharged, thereby reducing water consumption. Solvent recovery and waste heat recovery are also covered within the brochure, outlining the recovery options and the savings that can be made.
“We are proud to play a leading European role in providing clean solutions for industrial steam and heat production” states Cyril Fournier‐Montgieux, chairman of the Babcock Wanson Group. “This exciting challenge is an extraordinary source of motivation for all the teams in our Group, enabling us to make a vital contribution to improving our world. “Drawing on their history and complementary added values across different backgrounds and industries, our brands enable the Group to offer unique expertise to its customers and markets across the entire value chain. Structured in this way, we can accompany our customers on the road to decarbonisation.” For a copy of the new Babcock Wanson Group Sustainable Solutions brochure, go to
