Furnace Gases
Steel producers: create your own fuel.
In the steel industry, you need a lot of power — and energy costs are rising. Fortunately, there’s an energy source that is closer than you think: Gases created as a „free“ by-product during steel production processes can provide efficient power generation.
In addition to the economic benefit these gases provide, using them as engine fuel reduces industrial CO2 emissions and saves natural energy sources. Jenbacher offers specially modified gas engines that make efficient use of three different steel gases—coke gas, blast furnace gas, and converter gas—for combined generation of heat and electricity, while managing the gases’ varying compositions.
Furnace gas power generation benefits
- Alternative disposal of a challenging gas while simultaneously harnessing it as an energy source
- Reduced energy costs, and greater predictability and stability
- Efficient and economic combined heat and electricity supply
- High electrical efficiency compared to other power generation technology (e.g., steam or gas turbines)
- Full power in 10 minutes
- Considerably low gas pressure required
- Reduced greenhouse gas
- Long intervals between overhauls, due to simple, high-quality construction
