Waste heat recovery

ORC System Technology

We transform energy.
From heat to clean electricity.

Zuccato Energia produces electricity from your waste heat.
The ORC Systems recover the flue gases of your process and transform it into zero emissions energy.

With ORC you can reduce costs and increase your competitiveness finding application in industries (such as glass, steel, ceramics and cement) waste and biomass disposal, engine exhausts and flaring oil & gas.
