Climeon to launch HeatPower 300 Marine at SMM Hamburg
Climeon AB will officially launch its new waste heat recovery product , HeatPower 300 Marine , at SMM Hamburg . Optimized for the maritime industry , Climeon ’ s HeatPower 300 Marine system increases energy efficiency by generating clean , onboard energy from low-temperature waste heat . By reducing fuel consumption and decreasing CO2 emissions , HeatPower 300 Marine will enable shipowners and operators to achieve compliance with maritime
environmental regulations , reduce operating costs and increase sustainability .
Climeon ’ s technology is optimized for efficient electricity production from low-temperature waste heat , thus increasing the applicability of waste heat recovery ( WHR ) technology throughout the shipping industry . Using the thermodynamic principles of the Organic Rankine Cycle ( ORC ), HeatPower 300 Marine can utilize low-temp waste heat from a wider variety of onboard sources , increase the availability of usable thermal energy and maximize clean energy production .
Designed exclusively for the shipping industry , HeatPower 300 Marine is the first product from Climeon ’ s latest HeatPower range to be released . Following the official launch , Climeon will continue the dialogue with new and existing customers to deploy the first HeatPower 300 Marine systems onboard operational vessels .

Tranter wins order for 6 NovusBloc heat exchangers
Tranter have won an order consisting of six ( 6 ) NovusBloc ® heat exchangers in stainless steel that will be installed in a Bio Plastic factory in Thailand . The engineering and procurement activities for the project were handled by a global EPC company , and the final order was placed directly by the owner of the plant . “ Our flexible approach to meeting the customer ’ s need in terms delivery time , by shipping the heat exchangers directly to site from
Korea , was of great value for the customer . The win in this project makes Tranter an early-runner for new renewable chemical processes , with important references for this growing industry ”, says Thomas Cassirer , Sales Manager Global Accounts . The owner is based in the United States but is partly owned by a large chemical producer in Thailand , thus their investments in Thailand is likely to grow in the coming year as the world looks more and more towards renewable energy . The plant where the NovusBloc ® heat exchangers will be installed will use sugar cane as raw material to produce lactic acid , lactide , and polymer . This plant is the fully integrated PLA facility using leading innovation for naturally advanced materials made from renewable and abundant raw materials , with the economics and performance to compete with traditional crude oil-based products .
