Mimsan Energy installed a waste heat recovery system at Marmara Cement's plant

Mimsan Energy will use the waste heat recovery system at Marmara Cement's Düzce plant to harness energy released into the atmosphere, generating 53,000 MWh of electricity each year. This will cover 32 percent of the enterprise's annual electricity requirement.

Mimsan Energy, a leading local technology company that focuses on capturing waste heat, is helping factories comply with the Green Covenant by implementing their state-of-the-art waste heat recovery systems. They recently completed the installation of such a system at Marmara Cement's Düzce plant.

The Sales and Marketing Director of Mimsan Group, Hacer İlhan, emphasized that the cement industry is energy-intensive. He highlighted the company's role in helping factories comply with the Green Covenant by utilizing waste heat recovery systems in sectors like cement, iron-steel, and glass industries, where substantial waste heat is generated.

“Most of the thermal energy is discharged into the atmosphere through waste gases”

The waste heat recovery system we installed at Marmara Cement's Düzce facilities has brought significant benefits to the company. Energy makes up a large portion, around 60-70 percent, of the costs involved in cement production. Most of the thermal energy produced is typically released into the atmosphere as waste gases. Only a specific amount of the heat generated during the process can be utilized. By implementing recovery systems, it becomes feasible to convert the excess waste heat into electrical energy or other forms of energy. In the system set up at Marmara Cement, we produce superheated steam using a waste heat boiler integrated into the clinker cooling units. This superheated steam is then directed to the turbine to generate electrical power.
