The customised GETEC energy solution
Modern and efficient energy supply concept for the chemical industry.
The challenge
The existing supply of power to the plant using thermal oil and steam no longer met current demands and efficiency criteria. A new supply concept was to be developed to ensure the future security of supply.
The goal
The vent gas produced on site in the storage tanks should also be utilised as an energy source and thus used efficiently and in an environmentally-friendly fashion instead of being discarded in thermal post-combustion as was previously the case.
Our solution
GETEC developed a highly efficient, sustainable and economical supply concept that supplies the entire production site in Speyer with thermal oil and steam. The GETEC engineers opted to use two thermal oil boilers fired with natural gas and a steam generator indirectly heated with thermal oil. What makes this procedure so special The vent gas that accumulates during the production is thermally utilised in the system.

Dairy works Mittelelbe, Stendal (Saxony-Anhalt)
The Milchwerke Mittelelbe GmbH dairy plant turns up to 350,000 tonnes of milk per year into premium quality foodstuffs such as baby food, milkshakes and speciality powders using 14 spray tower plants plus other modern production, bottling and packaging facilities.
The customised GETEC energy solution
Modern and efficient energy supply concept for the dairy industry.
The challenge
Additional energy is required for the production systems of the dairy works due to an expansion in the production and the associated increased energy requirements. A new and efficient energy supply concept has to be designed and realised for this purpose.
The goal
Development and expansion of a cutting-edge energy concept.
Our solution
Within the framework of a management contract, initially GETEC constructed a steam generation plant followed by a natural gas-fired engine-based cogeneration system.
Three gas engines (CHP units) simultaneously supply heat for the drying and the various cleaning processes as well as electricity that substitutes the consumption drawn from the grid.

UELZENA eG (Uelzen)
The Uelzena Group is a leading food and milk processing provider. Aside from the manufacture of butter and butterfat at the Uelzen production site, the customers’ own products are spray dried by means of high-pressure steam.
The customised GETEC energy solution
Modern and efficient energy supply concept for the dairy industry.
The challenge
Upgrade of the existing boiler house that supplies steam for the dairy, under continuous operation and without interruption.
The goal
The coverage of the high requirements for heat and power at the Uelzen location was to be realised in an economically viable fashion as compared to the separate generation of heat in the existing boiler system as well as compared to the external acquisition of power. At the same time, it was essential to minimise the risks associated with the transition toward renewable energies, such as grid fluctuations and total loss of power.
Our solution
GETEC set up a cogeneration power plant with two CHP units and a waste heat recovery boiler. The system is completed with the new construction of two natural gas boilers (shell boiler), which replace two outdated existing boilers. In addition, GETEC is supporting Uelzena’s power supply by implementing a smart load management system.

Radici Chimica Deutschland GmbH
Radici Chimica Deutschland GmbH, a chemical company belonging to the Italian Radici Group, produces over 100,000 tonnes of adipic acid per year in the Zeitz Chemical Park. The white powder is the raw material for the production of nylon and other plastics, which, for example, are used in the automotive and clothing industries.
The customised GETEC energy solution
Modern and efficient energy supply concept for the chemical industry.
The challenge
Because the previous steam supply from the power station Mumsdorf was shut down in the summer of 2013, the management of the chemical company was looking for a viable, ultra-efficient and economical energy supply.
The goal
In the context of the supply concept, the idea was to also destroy the climate-damaging nitrous oxide (N2O) that accumulates on site, thereby lowering the greenhouse gas emission.
Our solution
GETEC opted to install two separate shell boilers. One is fired with particularly economical brown coal dust, whilst the other is fired with natural gas.
Facts and Figures
CO2 savings
approximately 100,000 tons of CO2 equivalents per year
Plant
Combined heat and power station with 2 steam boilers and back pressure steam turbine
Supply
Steam, electricity
Installed capacity
Thermal output: 37.1 MW;
Electrical output: 681 kW
We would never have dared to imagine that the problem with nitrous oxide can be resolved with pulverised lignite firing. […] This helps Radici achieve major savings in emissions trading, close to a million euros each year.
