Unlock your plant's potential: Identify opportunities for efficiency and achieve targeted cost reductions
Unlock your plant's potential: Identify opportunities for efficiency and achieve targeted cost reductions
Quick check for operators
- Are you making full use of all available efficiency opportunities?
- Are you minimising costs and fuel dependency using modern multi-fuel firing systems?
Our solution
Retrofitting modular efficiency components, optimising boiler and pipe insulation, and implementing modern burner technology.
Your benefit
You reduce your fuel costs by up to 25 %, immediately improve your carbon footprint, and secure a quick return on investment – in many cases in under two years.
Savings Potential
| Component / Measure | Potential saving |
|---|---|
| High-pressure condensate system | up to 12 % fuel |
| Flue gas heat exchanger | up to 7 % fuel |
| Condensing heat exchanger | up to 7 % fuel |
| TDS control and low salt operation | up to 3.4 % fuel |
| Air preheating system | up to 2.5 % fuel |
| Heat recovery module desalting/condensate | up to 2 % fuel |
| Feed water cooling module | up to 1.8 % fuel |
| Vapour cooler (deaerator heat) | up to 0.5 % fuel |
| O2 and/or CO controls | up to 0.5 % fuel |
| Speed control (combustion air fan) | up to 75 % electricity |
Note: The actual savings potential depends on the specific plant and its operating conditions. Many of these measures can be combined.
Significantly increase plant availability: Reliable operation and protection against unplanned downtime

Quick check for operators
- Are all key spare parts still readily available?
- Is the plant operated in a transparent and highly automated manner?
Our solution
Upgrading to the latest control technology, renewing sensor systems, integrating remote solutions, connecting to automation systems, and optimising water treatment components.
Your benefit
You minimise the risk of downtime, specifically reduce the workload on operational staff, and benefit from intelligent automation and data transparency.
Ensuring compliance: Reliably meet all legal requirements
Ensuring compliance: Reliably meet all legal requirements
Quick check for operators
- Does your plant comply with the latest statutory emissions requirements?
- Are all safety requirements and replacement intervals met on time?
Our solution
Burner retrofitting for NOx reduction, performing safety-related upgrades, and replacing components in accordance with EN 12953.
Your benefit
You safeguard the plant's operating licence, minimise liability risks in the event of an accident, and reliably prevent regulatory fines.
Boiler output tailored to your needs: Precisely adapted to your processes
Boiler output tailored to your needs: Precisely adapted to your processes
Quick check for operators
- Is sufficient steam or heat output available during peak demand periods?
- Does the plant cycle, causing energy inefficiency and high wear and tear?
Our solution
Adapting the burner and boiler output, using a modulating burner control, integrating a modern heat maintenance system, and retrofitting an intelligent sequence control for multi-boiler systems.
Your benefit
You optimise fuel consumption, prevent unnecessary material wear, and extend the service life of your boiler plant.
Positioned for the future: Becoming less dependent on fossil fuels
Positioned for the future: Becoming less dependent on fossil fuels
Quick check for operators
- Can you reduce your dependency on fossil fuels?
- Do you have a clear roadmap for reducing the carbon costs associated with your production?
Our solution
Switching to CO2-neutral fuels such as biogas, bio-oil or green hydrogen (H₂ ready). Power-to-heat solutions through the integration of electric heating elements.
Your benefit
You reduce your CO2 footprint, protect your business from volatile energy prices, and strengthen your position in sustainable supply chains.
