What does this mean in practise?
Sidestream utilisation in practice means:
-
Sidestream heat recovery: Waste heat from various processes can be directed to heat recovery systems or recycled as process heat.
-
Energy reuse: Electric boilers and battery systems allow energy to be stored for later use.
-
System integration: CTI’s solutions support hybrid models – for example, combining an electric boiler with milled biofuel.
-
Environmental responsibility: Less waste, less loss – more value from the available energy.
CTI’s approach is data-driven and tailored to each customer. We always start by mapping out the customer’s systems and production processes: where waste heat is generated, where energy can be recycled, and how it can be turned into usable production energy.
