FAQ

What is a heat recovery system and how does it work?

A heat recovery system is a technology that helps recover and reuse heat energy from a systems exhaust air, which would otherwise be wasted. This is typically done using heat exchangers. There are two types of systems: A: Heat recovery with a heat pump (HP) and B: Heat recovery with a crossflow heat exchanger (CFE).

What are the benefits of using a heat recovery system?

By recovering and reusing heat energy, you can significantly reduce your energy consumption and lower your heating bills. This also leads to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, contributing to a more sustainable environment.

Which system is more efficient?

The HP system is much more efficient for granulation and drying processes, while the efficiency of both systems is comparable for coating or hotmelt processes.

What are the cost considerations for these systems?

The HP system has a higher investment cost but also higher recovery rates. The CFE system has a lower investment cost but also lower recovery rates for granulation and drying processes.

What are the maintenance requirements for these systems?

The CFE system is a low-maintenance solution (annual cleaning only), while the HP system requires more maintenance due to its higher technical complexity.

What are the space requirements for these systems?

The HP system requires additional installation space in the technical area, the CFE system will be integrated into the AHU and extend its size.

What is the difference between the two systems?

The HP (heat pump) system uses a heat pump to increase the temperature level of the thermal energy taken from the outlet air stream and use it at the inlet air stream either for pre-heating or for full heating. The CFE (crossflow heat exchanger) system is using a crossflow plate heat exchanger to transfer thermal energy from the outlet air stream to the inlet air stream directly.

How does the Innojet Heat Recovery System compare to traditional heat recovery methods?

The system is similar to all industrial size heat recovery systems based on heat pumps. One essential difference is that the system uses the recovered energy by itself in the inlet stream.

What kind of energy sources can the Innojet system utilize?

For heat recovery: electric power, for the air heating: all kinds of thermal energy the customer can provide.

What troubleshooting support does Romaco provide if issues arise with the system?

Remote access for first investigation and onsite service

Can the Innojet Heat Recovery System be upgraded in the future?

Generally, yes. There must be installed a second heat exchanger in the inlet monobloc of the FB system. Feasibility depends on the arrangement of the system and the available space at the customer’s site.

What kind of training does Romaco provide for using the Innojet system?

We offer (and recommend) training for maintenance and operator staff when a new system is installed. Besides this we generally offer on-site training for our customers in order to optimize the use and efficiency of our systems.
