2 Turboden s ORC Technology for Steel & Metals Made In Steel 20 maggio 2015

3 About Us 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, Associate Professor at Politecnico di Milano, teaching Thermodynamics, Renewable Energy and specifically studying ORC systems. At present Prof. Gaia is Honorary Chairman. A number of his former students are key persons in the Company and the whole Company is permeated by innovative and research oriented spirit. 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.

4 35 Years of Experience Prof. Mario Gaia makes experience in the field of ORC within his research group at Politecnico di Milano 1976 First prototype of a solar thermodynamic ORC Prof. Mario Gaia founds Turboden to design and manufacture ORC turbogenerators Turboden develops research projects in solar, geothermal and heat recovery applications 1998 First ORC biomass plant in Switzerland (300 kw) Turboden installs ORC biomass plants, especially in Austria, Germany and Italy Turboden plans to enter new markets, with focus on North America First heat recovery applications 2009 Turboden achieves 100 plants sold United Technologies Corp. (UTC) acquires the majority of Turboden s quota. PW Power Systems supports Turboden in new markets beyond Europe UTC exits the power market forming strategic alliance with Mitsubishi Heavy Industries PW Power Systems becomes an MHI group company MHI acquires the majority of Turboden. Italian partners stay in charge of management Today - Over 300 ORC plants in the world, over 240 in operation

7 Waste heat recovery options in Energy Intensive Industries First option is using residual heat as such in process / plant however Efficient direct use of waste heat is normally limited due to: Overall efficiently can improve converting residual heat to mechanical / electrical power Rankine Cycle systems are most common heat-to-power solutions in Energy Intensive Industries

8 ORC in Industrial Heat Recovery Industrial heat recovery demands Main process reliability must not be affected Plant operators must not be distracted Matching actual working regimes (variable, semi-batch, upset) ORC can guarantee Process interface with easy decoupling Simple, fail-safe, automatic system Flexible / modulating operation + suitable heat capture and transfer systems Key points: Process heat exchangers Heat carrier

9 Heat to power conversion with Rankine Cycle (I) Steam Turbine & ORC Hot source Working fluid Heat sink ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle): a cycle with a change of phase utilizing a working fluid different from water. High molecular mass fluid instead of water / steam Technology of choice for distributed generation in renewables and in heat recovery

10 Heat to power conversion with Rankine Cycle (II) Steam Turbine & ORC Steam Turbine (Traditional Rankine Cycle) vs. Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) Temperature Temperature Thermodynamic features Operation and maintenance costs Entropy High enthalpy drop Superheating needed Risk of blade erosion Water treatment required High pressures and temperatures Specialized personnel necessary Entropy Small enthalpy drop No need to superheat No risk of blade erosion Non oxidizing working fluid Minimum personnel Automatic/Self regulating Convenient for plants > 10 MWe High flexibility and good Other features Low flexibility performance at partial load Lower performance at partial load Well proven in industrial heat recovery
