Environmentally Rugged Efficient

friendly
For high temperature
applications, AQYLON’s organic
working fluids have a very low
Global Warming Potential
(GWP 3-20).
AQYLON’s ORC modules are
designed for durability and fit into
standard containers, allowing for
modular deployment.
AQYLON’s ORC modules apply
cutting edge technology
to maximize efficiency according
to the heat source. AQYLON
holds four patents related to
turbines and ORC technology,
and eight more are pending.

Heat recovery from industrial installations

AQYLON’s ORC modules convert waste heat contained in ex-
haust fumes and other industrial processes such as water loops
and thermal oil loops into electricity. When the heat to drive the
ORC cycle comes from waste process heat or exhaust fumes,
the industrial process as a whole is unaffected.

ORC heat recovery:

Flue gas from industry

When recovering exhaust fumes, a heat exchanger must be

placed on the chimney to collect the heat and transfer it to a
thermal oil loop that will feed the ORC module.

Reliable and decentralized energy

The organic fluid is vaporized in the evaporator(1) and then supplied to the ORC turbine(2) that drives a generator(2), producing clean and reliable power. The vaporized
fluid enters the regenerator(2) to give its remaining energy to the liquid organic fluid. The vapor is then condensed in a condenser(2) which is supplied with cooling
water. The condensed fluid is then pumped(3) into the regenerator(2) and finally into the evaporator(1) to close the circuit.
AQYLON ORC modules are preassembled in our facility workshop in two 40ft containers for the 1MW unit.
Create value from your exhaust streams
Most industrial plants • Cement factories These industries can all improve their global energetic
have exhaust streams • Steel mills efficiency by installing our ORC modules to simultaneously
that can be valorized. • Foundries decrease both pollution and energy bills.
AQYLON proposes to • Glass furnaces

• Aluminum smelters
through heat recovery on
the exhaust streams in: •P lants treating sewage through
incineration
• Incinerators
… all heat generating plants

In the figure above we can see a heat exchanger with its bypass,
placed on the fumes of glass factory. The heat is sent to the ORC
through a thermal oil loop. Dry coolers are used for the cold loop
of the ORC.

ORCs can also be used to cool water or replace coolers. For

example, in some incinerators, the fumes are cooled down with
a boiler + water loop + coolers system before being processed.
In this case, the coolers can be replaced by an ORC, making
it possible to generate power instead of consuming power to
cool the fumes. This process not only generates power but also
eliminates the electrical consumption of the coolers.
Depending on the territory and the
applications, if there is no will or
capacity to invest in an ORC solution,
AQYLON offers a fully financed solution
where all costs and risks associated
with our ORC modules are assumed
by external investors. In exchange,
the client provides AQYLON with a
Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).
The client agrees to purchase electricity
produced by AQYLON’s ORC modules
at a price that is 5 to 30% below the plant
electricity price or plant generation
cost. At the end of the PPA period,
the client can renew the PPA
or purchase AQYLON’s ORC modules
at a greatly reduced price.
Our Project Financing Model: There are three possibilities at the

AQYLON designs, manufactures and installs complete ORC solutions (Organic Rankine Cycle) for the production of electricity from
high temperature heat sources, at a competitive price. AQYLON proposes standard and tailor made solutions up to 15 MWe. Targeted
applications include recovery of waste heat from engines, recovery of industrial waste heat, biomass power plants, geothermal and
solar thermal sources.

AQYLON offers two business models. Customers may invest through the usual product purchasing process. For customers not
willing to invest, we have a “ZERO CAPEX/ OPEX” option with turnkey solutions fully financed with the sale of the produced electricity,
at a lower price than the grid (PPA).
