SAACKE energy efficiency

Alternative Fuels
A buffer against rising oil and gas prices

Utilization instead of disposal

Gaseous, liquid or dust

In view of rising ecological demands, SAACKE places special weight
on the development of „clean“ firing systems for environmentally
friendly combustion of nearly all gaseous, liquid and dust fuels.

Such potential savings can be found in a number of sectors.
SAACKE firing plants for alternative fuels are used, for example, in
the steel, food and chemical industry.
An SSB-LCG swirl burner, for instance, ensures that lean gases with
a low heating value, such those generated as a by-product in steel
production, are burned completely.

One of the focal points is the development of firing systems for
alternative fuels that are frequently generated as by-products in
industrial production and have to be disposed of according to legal
standards in an environmentally sound and usually costly manner.
SAACKE has developed various burner technologies that not only
guarantee low-pollution combustion of alternative fuels, such as
animal fats, lean gases and dust, but also enable their energetic
utilization.
Industrial by-products are turned into valuable sources of energy
that replace natural gas and other expensive primary fuels and thus
substantially reduce energy costs.
Purchase of such a firing system therefore pays off quickly. In many
cases this additionally results in a significant reduction in emissions
of greenhouse gases, particularly CO2.

SAACKE has also developed a special burner for the utilization of
biogenic fuels. During the distillation of soy and sugar into
bioethanol molasses or vinasse are generated. These liquid
by-products, which have a very low heating value, can be energetically utilized with a SAACKE SSB-LCL burner.
As a result, 80 percent of the fossil fuels required for bioethanol
production can be saved.
For combustion of dry, fossil and non-fossil and fossil industrial
by-products with a very low heating value, like wood dust or
pulverized coal, SAACKE employs a special dust burner. This burner
allows utilizing the thermal energy contained in dust and many
other dry waste products for industrial purposes through economical and low-pollution combustion.
