By Jason Gold, CEO of KGRA Energy Industry can’t exist without water. Producing anything involves heat. When you’re a manufacturing facility, you’re lucky to be pushing out exhaust heat at less than 400 degrees Fahrenheit. It costs water to make … Continue reading →

By the end of this summer, a Weyerhaeuser lumber mill in Greenville, N.C., will be utilizing organic Rankine cycle technology to recover waste heat from its biomass-based drying system and using it to produce 800 kilowatts of electricity for the … Continue reading →

GRIFTON (August 16, 2011) — At Weyerhaeuser’s Greenville Lumber Facility, some of the lumber mill’s electricity soon could be generated via a waste heat recovery system. A pilot project is expected to enter the testing phase at the Hanrahan Road … Continue reading →

The terms renewable energy and clean technology conjure up certain images. It could be a photovoltaic panel baking in the desert, or perhaps a wind turbine slowly rotating in the Great Plains. Or, even a massive dam generating hydropower. However, … Continue reading →

It’s hard to go on a water-free diet when you’re a manufacturing facility, pushing out exhaust heat at more than 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Sure, a solar field or a wind turbine could generate water-free clean energy, but I’m not talking … Continue reading →

KGRA Energy, a two-year-old venture-funded company employs organic Rankin cycle (ORC) technology to harness waste heat from industrial operations and convert it into usable, emission-free electricity that reduces energy costs and lowers carbon footprints. KGRA is currently installing the world’s … Continue reading →

“Waste heat recovery is the hidden gem of renewable energy, it’s ubiquitous, and it’s right under our collective noses,” Gold told Industrial Info. “The solution to industrial companies’ electricity needs is right on their property.” Click here to read more

KGRA Energy LP, a U.S.-based waste heat recovery developer, has signed a contract with Weyerhaeuser Co. KGRA’s subsidiary Ayden HTP Partners LLC will design and construct the 800 kW waste heat recovery system at Weyerhaeuser’s Greenville, N.C., lumber mill. The … Continue reading →

The terms renewable energy and clean technology conjure up images of photovoltaic panels baking in the desert sun, wind turbines rotating lazily in the wind, and large dams generating hydro-power. However, there is another important and growing clean energy technology … Continue reading →

In the relatively near future, a fracking company may harvest electricity from the Marcellus Shale formation, too. The power won’t come from converting shale gas into electricity. Instead, it will be created by harvesting the 840-degree waste heat exuded by … Continue reading →
