SHANGHAI, Nov. 11, 2010 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- China Energy Recovery Inc. (Pink Sheets: CGYV) ("CER") announced today it signed a $10.9 million (US) contract with Wengfu Co., Ltd. to retrofit a heat energy recovery system into an existing sulfuric acid plant at the company's Fuquan City facility located in Guizhou Province, China.
CER's heat recovery system will be capable of generating 960 tons of steam per day at 176C and 0.8MPa from operations at the plant. The steam will be used to supply power for the plant, reducing its demand for electricity produced from fossil-fuels. CER's installation is scheduled for completion in August 2011.
Wengfu produces a range of basic chemicals at its Fuquan City facility including phosphate, sulfuric acid, iodine and anhydrous hydrogen fluoride.
"We are excited to have Wengfu as a new customer and we look forward to helping them cut costs and reduce pollutants," CER Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Qinghuan Wu said. "CER has developed a strong design that will deliver real savings."
Installation of CER's heat recovery system is aligned with Wengfu's commitment to sustainable development and reduced sulfur chemical pollution. By using recovered heat to produce steam as an energy source, Wengfu will be able to reduce costs, energy consumption and pollutants.
What is Waste Heat Energy Recovery?
Industrial facilities release significant amounts of excess heat into the atmosphere in the form of hot exhaust gases or high-pressure steam. Energy recovery is the process of recovering as much as two-thirds of that wasted energy and converting it into usable heat energy or electricity, dramatically lowering energy costs. Energy recovery systems are also capable of lowering heat pollution and capturing harmful pollutants that would otherwise be released into the environment. It is estimated that if energy currently wasted by all the U.S. industrial facilities could be recovered, it could produce power equivalent to 20% of U.S. electricity generation capacity without burning any additional fossil fuel, and could help many industries to meet stringent environmental regulations.
About China Energy Recovery, Inc.
CER is an international engineering and manufacturing company that specializes in the design, construction and installation of waste heat energy recovery systems that captures and converts industrial waste energy produced by heavy industrial processes such as petroleum and chemicals refining, paper manufacturing and refining into low-cost electrical power, which enables industrial manufacturers to reduce their energy costs, shrink their emissions footprint and generate salable emissions credits. The company's primary focus is the Chinese market; however, CER's systems are operating in heavy industrial plants located in Egypt, Korea, Vietnam and Malaysia. CER is building China's first state-of-the-art, energy recovery system research and fabrication facility, which will allow CER to meet increased demand for its products and services.
