Portugal: Secil Group has engaged Italy-based CTP Team to supply and install a 29MW waste heat recovery (WHR) plant at its 2.0Mt/yr Secil-Outão cement plant in Setúbal, Lisboa Region. Dry Cargo International News has reported that the WHR plant will include a 7.2MW Turboden turbine. CTP Team says that, when operational in mid-2022, the plant will cover 30% of the Secil-Outão cement plant’s electricity consumption, reducing its CO2 emissions by 14,000t/yr.
CTP Team said, “Thanks to the specific advantages of organic cycles and to the total absence of water treatments in the process, the operating expenditure (OPEX) is 75% lower than for an equivalent steam rankine-based WHR cycle.
