What the Project Is
Waste To Energy Generating Inc. introduces an innovative solution with industrial Water and Energy farms that transform natural low potential waste heat and atmospheric humidity into electricity and fresh drinking water. This breakthrough approach uses limitless, sustainable, and renewable resources that are both ecologically friendly and absolutely green with zero carbon footprint. The innovation is all about converting waste thermal energy into electrical energy and cooling, all while operating around the clock, every single day of the year… It’s a modern twist on energy production that promises efficiency and scalability.
Main Benefit
The technology offers some remarkable benefits that stand out in today’s energy sector:
- Generation of electricity from low-grade heat below 100°C with an efficiency of 25-30%
- Capital cost reduction by at least 60% and a break-even point in less than 4 years
- Scalability from kilowatts to megawatts, making it versatile for different applications
- A significant negative effect on CO2 emissions – for instance, generating 100 megawatts of electricity from low-grade thermal power can reduce emissions by 151,000 tonnes
- The Energy Returned on Energy Invested (EROEI) is projected to grow by more than 20%
Industrial Water and Energy Farms
These innovative farms are designed to produce over 265,000 gallons (or 1 million liters) of fresh drinking water each day directly from the atmosphere and more than 3 Megawatts of electricity per hour from outdoor thermal energy. This dual capability is achieved through a well-harmonized system where the Atmospheric Water Generator condenses clean water with thousands of innovative condensers working simultaneously. Each condenser, receiving cold transfer fluid from the electricity generator, collects about 1 liter of water per hour. The farms operate continuously, day and night, ensuring that the potential of natural resources is maximized without interruption.
Breakthrough Thermodynamic Cycle
The core of the technology lies in a breakthrough combined thermodynamic cycle based on a single heat engine. This cycle efficiently converts waste thermal energy into both electricity and cooling. The system starts working effectively from as low as +68°F or +20°C. During the day, a solar field warms a heat transfer fluid, which is then sent to heat accumulators to power the generator overnight. There is an undeniable charm in this innovative cycle—the way it harnesses low-grade thermal power (ranging from 70 to 120°C) with an efficiency of 25-30% seems to redefine how energy from waste heat is perceived, making every degree count.
Climate Impact and Innovation
The current global scenario sees humanity losing more than $1 trillion each year due to wasted heat energy. In contrast, this project offers a promising countermeasure. By converting wasted heat into valuable energy and fresh water, it not only supports sustainable development but also plays a crucial role in reducing industrial CO2 emissions. The system boasts a very negative impact on CO2 emissions, which is a strong environmental benefit. Additionally, the technology is patented in the USA, Canada, and other countries, and is recognized at Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 5-7, marking a significant step forward in the commercialization of innovative energy solutions.
Global Market Deployment
The potential markets for these industrial Water and Energy farms are diverse and extensive. They are particularly applicable in regions such as The Gulf States and other Middle Eastern countries, Central and South-East Asia, Africa, the USA, Central and Latin America, Southern Europe, India, and China, among others. This global approach ensures that areas with significant waste heat challenges and water scarcity issues can benefit from the technology, creating a far-reaching positive impact on energy sustainability worldwide. The adaptability and modularity of the system make it an attractive solution across various sectors, including oil & gas and geothermal industries.
