Albertstroom - Exhaust gas ducting
This project showcases the efficiency of an exhaust gas ducting system. The client supplies electricity to the government network, and the heat generated during electricity production is utilized in the fermentation process. The resulting gas from fermentation is then used to power engines. Additionally, the remaining heat is employed in a wood drying process, ensuring maximum energy utilization when burning gas.
