ENERGY

Integrated air pollution control system solutions in the Energy industry for all types of flue gas cleaning and waste heat utilization provide a competitive edge to our energy clients. Implementing flue gas condensers and ensuring strict adherence to emissions regulations is crucial to success in meeting client expectations for high availability and increased efficiency.

Scheuch energy industry

Biomass

Natural biomass is the biodegradable component of organic agricultural and forestry wastes, with negligible contamination. This can include wood pellets, straw, sunflower husks, wood chips, or corncobs. We implement different Scheuch products and combined systems depending on the fuel in question. Depending on the fuel moisture content, the addition of a flue gas condensation system can recover up to 50% of the rated boiler capacity.

Waste Wood

Waste wood refers to any wood that either undergoes conventional disposal or serves as a fuel for combustion plants. There are many different classifications, and they vary from country to country, but generally, as the proportion of contaminants in the wood increases, the equipment required for the cleaning of the flue gases becomes more complex and comprehensive. Scheuch offers a variety of complete solutions for all classifications of waste wood.

Fossil Fuels

Fossil fuels like coal, peat, and crude oil have developed by undergoing a slow biological and physical transformation from ancient plant-based biomass. During their combustion, greenhouse gases, as well as other environmentally relevant pollutants, like dust, ash, and SO₂, are released and must be separated and removed from the flue gas. This is yet another area where Scheuch can offer customized flue gas cleaning solutions.

Waste

When burned, fuels and other wastes made from trash contain contaminants such as acidic pollutants (SOx, HCl, and HF) and organic and inorganic compounds (dioxins, furans, and heavy metals). Scheuch offers a variety of absorptive cleaning processes to comply with emissions regulations while maintaining the highest possible availability. Due to our long-term experience in this sector, we can offer technologically mature solutions.

Scheuch baghouse technology

DUST FILTRATION

Process Filters

Scheuch’s innovative air pollution control (APC) technology has found its place in a variety of applications across the globe. Our global subsidiaries allow us to meet our client’s clean air requirements through every step of the manufacturing process. Product scope extends from baghouse dust collectors to exhaust gas cooling and waste heat utilization.


Scheuch SMC Impulse Filter

DUST FILTRATION

Nuisance Filters

Because of their large-volume valves and patented Impulse cleaning system, the Compact Impulse Filter model stands out with its low operating and maintenance costs. In addition, the compressed air cleaning system, the filter bag, or cage design ensures the highest levels of operating reliability.


Scheuch hot gas filter

DUST FILTRATION

Hot-Gas Filter

Scheuch’s Hot-Gas Filter is the future of exhaust gas cleaning and dust control. This model can really take the heat. One of the many advantages is the high-temperature resistance of the ceramic (candle) filter elements. While conventional bag filters with fabric media reach their limits at process temperatures of 500° F (260° C), for hot-gas filters and their ceramic filter elements, even 932° F (500° C) is not a problem.


Scheuch dry sorption technology

EXHAUST GAS CLEANING

Dry Sorption

Scheuch specializes in providing customized solutions for each individual application to ensure the best combination of low investment costs and minimal operating expenses. Scheuch dry sorption technologies can be used to reduce acidic pollutants (HF, HCL, and SOx) by utilizing additives made of calcium or sodium.


Scheuch heat recovery and condensation technology

HEAT EXCHANGERS and COOLING SYSTEMS

Waste Heat Utilization

Systems for utilizing waste heat with local and district heat enable the most efficient and profitable use of recovered energy. Scheuch developed the Energy Recovery & Cleaning System (ERCS) that maximizes waste heat utilization for boiler outputs of up to 200 MW using condensers and economizers.


Scheuch gas conditioning tower

HEAT EXCHANGERS and COOLING SYSTEMS

Gas Conditioning Tower

When performing exhaust gas cleaning, the exhaust gas needs to be cooled down prior to starting the cleaning process. Scheuch’s gas conditioning towers provide exceptional efficiency due to their optimal instrument-based design and layout combined with adapted controls.


Scheuch swing out fan

FANS

Radial Fans

Scheuch has built more than 70,000 industrial-grade radial fans to transport clean or exhaust air, chips, and fibrous material as well as explosive gas mixtures. Over the years, we have created and perfected a comprehensive program of roughly 1,700 fan types. These have pressure ranges from 750 Pa (4 in WC) to 30,000 Pa (80 in WC) and volume flows from 750 to 960,000 Am³/h (300 to 380,000 acfm).


Scheuch rotary valve airlock

BULK MATERIAL HANDLING

Rotary Valves

Rotary valves are used to discharge dust, chipboard shavings, and fibrous conveyed goods. They can also be used as shut-off devices. Scheuch rotary valves can also be designed to be resistant to ignition and flame penetration for explosion decoupling purposes.


Scheuch screw conveyor components

BULK MATERIAL HANDLING

Screw Conveyors

Tube and trough-type screw conveyors are used to continuously transport bulk materials at throughput volumes of 2 to 500 m³/h and with diameters between 8 and 40 inches (200 and 1,000 mm). Model types of screw conveyors include pipe, trough, and custom design.


Scheuch Pendulum Flap Valve

BULK MATERIAL HANDLING

Pendulum Flaps

Pendulum flaps are used for the continuous dosing, blocking, and discharging of bulk materials. The flexible structure of the Scheuch pendulum flaps enables reliable channeling and separation of free-flowing bulk materials out of and into pressure-difference chambers (e.g., filter systems). These are actuated pneumatically, electrically, or mechanically.
