TRANSCRIPT
The T2 Rotary Lobe Pump as Turbine (PaT) is an in-pipe systemthat combines pressure and fluid control with electricity generation to recover the embedded energy in pressurisedWater mains or systems.
Water Supply SystemsDamping excess pressures in systems
Balancing pressures in supply networks
Extraction of excess pressure at the outlet of a water supply line
Extraction of Hydro Energy from Natural Resources
Reservoirs or Dams using the spill andcompensation flowsHydro recovery systems from rivers or streamsCanal and lock systems
Water Mills
Industrial ApplicationsPressure damping in cooling watercirculation systemsPumped Storage
Reduction of process water pressure
Lower initial cost when compared to traditional turbines
Utilises standard and field proven products
Simple and robust constructionAvailability of spares coupled with ease of maintenance
High efficiency (up to 86%)
24 hour energy supply
Return on investment period is short when compared to other renewable energy methodsShort delivery time, easily transported and installed with minimal civils works
The energy is recovered from the pressure differential (head) whilst the water flow is passed back into the existing system.
The Pump as Turbine (PaT) can be used to generate electricity for exporting to the grid or be directed for local supply.
