About Us
2
Turboden is a leading European company in development and production of ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) turbogenerators. This state of the art equipment generates heat and power from renewable sources and heat recovery in industrial processes. The company was founded in 1980 in Milan by Mario Gaia, Professor of Energy at the Politecnico di Milano, and today Managing Director of Turboden. His close connection with the university has always ensured the recruitment of highly qualified R&D personnel. Turboden has always had a single mission: to design ORC turbogenerators for the production of heat and electrical power from renewable sources, while constantly striving to implement ORC technical solutions. In 2009, Turboden became part of UTC Corp., a worldwide leader in development, production and service for aero engines, aerospace drive systems and power generation gas turbines, to develop ORC solutions from renewable sources and waste heat worldwide. In 2013 UTC exits the power market forming strategic alliance with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. In 2013 Mitsubishi Heavy Industries acquires from UTC Pratt & Whitney Power Systems (now PW Power Systems, Inc.) and the affiliate Turboden. Today Turboden s.r.l. and PW Power Systems, Inc. are MHI group companies to provide a wider range of products and services for thermal power generation systems. In 2013 Turboden’s Quality Management System gets certified to ISO 9001:2008.

What We Do
Turboden designs and develops turbogenerators based on the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), a technology for the combined generation of heat and electrical power from various renewable sources, particularly suitable for distributed generation.

The Thermodynamic Principle: The ORC Cycle
The turbogenerator uses the hot temperature thermal oil to pre-heat and vaporize a suitable organic working fluid in the evaporator (8→3→4). The organic fluid vapor powers the turbine (4→5), which is directly coupled to the electric generator through an elastic coupling. The exhaust vapor flows through the regenerator (5→9) where it heats the organic liquid (2→8). The vapor is then condensed in the condenser (cooled by the water flow) (9→6→1). The organic fluid liquid is finally pumped (1→2) to the regenerator and then to the evaporator, thus completing the sequence of operations in the closed-loop circuit.

Why High Molecular Mass Working Fluid Instead of Water?
Water • Small, fast moving molecules • Metal parts and blade erosion • Multistage turbine and high mechanical
stress
Organic Fluid • Very large flow rate • Larger diameter turbine • No wear of blades and metal parts
WATER HIGH MOLECULAR MASS FLUID

Advantages of Turboden ORC Turbogenerators
10
Technical advantages High cycle efficiency Very high turbine efficiency (up to 90%) Low mechanical stress of the turbine due to the low peripheral speed Low RPM of the turbine allowing the direct drive of the electric generator without reduction gear No erosion of blades, thanks to the absence of moisture in the vapor nozzles
Operational advantages / results Simple start-stop procedures Automatic and continuous operation No operator attendance needed Quiet operation Partial load operation down to 10% of nominal power High efficiency even at partial load Low O&M requirements: about 3-5 hours / week Long life High Availability (confirmed by more than 4 million hours of operation)

Reference Plant – ITC, Turkey
Location: Ankara (Turkey) Client: ITC-KA Enerji Uretim Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. Start-up: Q1 2014 Heat source: industrial waste gasification Source temperature: 315°C (thermal oil) Water temperature (in/out): 25-35°C Electric Power: 5.5 MWe
Net electrical efficiency: ∼25%
Project description: the high efficiency Turboden 55-HRS
unit exploits the heat from the combustion of the synthesis
gas generated from industrial waste.
The gas is burned in a boiler that heats up the thermal oil
that carries the 20 MWt input into the ORC module.
The cooling is done through wet cooling towers.
The client is installing a second 55-HRS unit and is looking at
a number of 110-HRS units (∼11 MWel each) to use with
municipal waste in the near future

Reference Plant – MSG, WA
Location: Wagin (WA) Client: Morton Seed and Grain Start-up: Q1 2015 Heat source: oat husks Source temperature: 23 bar(a) saturated steam Water temperature (in/out): 27.5-38°C Electric Power: 600 KWe
Net electrical efficiency: 17%
Project description: The proposed facility will convert
between 6,000 and 10,000 tons of oat husk per year.
The Turboden 6 HR split unit will be fed with saturated steam
instead of the traditional thermal oil and will be used at part
load (60-80%) most of the time for a couple of years, taking
advantage of its ability to follow variable loads and retain high
part load efficiency (e.g. at 50% load, around 90% of the
nominal load efficiency).
The estimated project value of about AU$3.8 Million.
