Industrial heat recovery with Top performance

"Reduce your energy costs by up to 40 % and protect the environment at the same time."

for the industry

Energy recycling systems for the industry

Energy is valuable. And energy is becoming increasingly valuable. In addition to personnel and premises costs, the costs for the procurement, distribution, use and "disposal" of energy are becoming an increasingly critical factor within companies. As an entrepreneur or manager within a company, you have nothing to give away ... especially not energy!

From the production process to the company canteen, excess heat is generated. Server rooms and warehouses need to be cooled, offices and staff rooms need to be air-conditioned depending on the season and weather conditions.

A lot of energy is invested in all these processes - a lot of energy is lost in all these processes!

SIMACOVERY® recovers this energy for you and makes it available again elsewhere. This is economically viable, protects the environment and gives you a good deal of independence from your energy suppliers and the uncertainties of the energy markets.

Energy recovery

The energy recovery system SIMACOVERY®

The name of our energy recovery system is made up of our company name SIMAKA and the English word "recovery". SIMACOVERY® is used to recover usable energy from previously unused heat generated during your production processes. And with as little effort as possible. The result is an energetically and economically highly profitable cycle.

Of course, depending on the operating conditions and the size of the system, this process requires external energy in the form of electricity. However, the power consumption is extremely low.

If you need both heating and cooling energy in your company - and if this supply is energy-optimized by SIMACOVERY®, then the use of an energy recovery system is already an absolute "MUST". Against the backdrop of constantly rising energy costs and ever stricter legal requirements, you can ensure the profitability of your company.

Functionality

SIMACOVERY® extracts unused residual heat from various media, such as air, water or chemical substances, at different temperature levels. In the case of liquid media, such as water, this takes place in an extremely low-maintenance, closed circuit.

With the help of our proprietary technology, the temperature level is then raised again to a level that you can use. By using this recovered energy, you save on operating costs and also reduce pollutant emissions. You also achieve a greater degree of independence from your energy suppliers.

An individual and needs-based analysis in your company will show you the profitable application possibilities of a SIMACOVERY®. The amortization period of the system depends on the size of the system, the operating hours and the electricity consumption. The demand analysis clearly illustrates how the use of SIMACOVERY® pays off for you in cash in a very short time.

SIMACOVERY® is an investment in the future of your company and saves operating costs from the very first minute.

Information on SIMACOVERY

Areas of application
In principle, SIMACOVERY® can be used profitably in almost any production operation in which both heat and cold play a role. The decisive factor is that a usable temperature gradient is created, as is the case in companies that use thermal energy.
Ideal areas of application for energy recovery with SIMACOVERY® are therefore companies in which a high level of waste heat is generated, such as energy producers, the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, the paper industry, paint stores, electroplating plants, breweries or dairies, commercial kitchens, etc.

From our experience, we know that there is immense potential in areas of application that at first glance appear to be "difficult cases". So if you think that valuable energy is being wasted at any point in your company, then talk to us: we will show you how and where SIMACOVERY® can achieve the greatest possible benefit for you.
Please also take a look at our completed systems, the details of which can be found on our reference page.
Technical data
The size of the system depends on your individual requirements and possibilities. A 15 kW system, for example, has dimensions of 1.40 m high, 600 mm wide and 400 mm deep. A 300 kW system requires considerably more space (3 m wide, 2 m high, 4 m long).

The principle

Production process
without energy recovery

Production process
with energy recovery

Today, production processes are usually optimized according to the principle of "How can the use of resources (input) be further minimized while maintaining the same yield (output)?". In short: it's all about saving energy. SIMACOVERY® revolutionizes the conventional approach to the term "economic efficiency" in production processes, because SIMACOVERY® makes it possible to recover and reuse energy resources.

Energy in the form of heat is lost unused in almost all industrial processing and production processes. In extreme cases, additional energy even has to be used, for example to cool systems.

The reduction from one heat level to another is called a temperature gradient. Our SIMACOVERY® energy recovery system makes the thermal energy of such a temperature gradient usable again - even with the smallest temperature differences. We analyze the potential of recoverable energy in your company and take this into account when designing the optimum system size for you.

System sizes from 2 kilowatts to 10 megawatts can currently be realized. Operation is extremely cost-effective and our systems pay for themselves within a very short time, depending on the processing quantity and volume.

The inventory analysis

In order to determine the exact requirements that your company has for energy recovery with SIMACOVERY®, an on-site analysis of your company is necessary. Our experts will determine exactly which system will achieve the greatest possible benefit for you at which point in your company. After evaluating all the data, we will be happy to create an individual energy recovery concept tailored specifically to your company.

An easy way to get a quick overview of the performance of a SIMACOVERY® system is to use our recovery calculator. It provides an initial impression of the recovery potential in your company, the necessary investments and the potential savings. However, it is in no way a substitute for an individual inventory analysis.

A competent specialist advisor will be happy to provide you with an initial, informative discussion by telephone. They will be able to clarify relevant questions for you in advance. We are also happy to discuss your requirements with you on site.

Promotion

Subsidies and subsidies

In addition to the economic benefits of using the SIMACOVERY® energy recovery system, this system also makes an active contribution to environmental protection: CO² emissions are significantly reduced.

Both the Federal Republic of Germany and the European Union are committed to ensuring that companies produce in an environmentally conscious manner. Entrepreneurs are encouraged to use new technologies that help to protect the environment. As a result, you also receive state subsidies for the use of our highly efficient SIMACOVERY® technology.

As a rule, these are non-repayable grants. We will of course be happy to help you apply for these subsidies.

With its many years of experience in the field of energy recovery, SIMAKA is always happy to provide you with advice and active support. Take advantage of the opportunities that SIMACOVERY® can offer you and your company. Turn your company into a model company that actively participates in environmental protection and saves considerable costs in the process.
