INDUSTRIAL WASTE HEAT RECOVERY

TURN WASTE HEAT INTO VALUABLE ENERGY

We make sure this energy is used where it is needed.

RECOVERY

OF INDUSTRIAL WASTE HEAT

Harness unused energy – with our innovative heat pump solutions.

Many industrial processes generate large amounts of waste heat every day, much of which remains unused. With YANMAR’s energy systems, this energy can be upgraded into valuable process heat, increasing the overall efficiency of your plant.

Industrial waste heat

Untapped potential in your production process

Nearly every industrial process generates heat, much of which is released into the environment unused – representing a significant economic loss that adds up year after year. At the same time, the demand for efficient and sustainable process heat continues to grow, while energy costs and regulatory requirements are increasing.

This creates significant potential: With the right technology, waste heat can be systematically recovered, upgraded to the required temperature level and reintegrated directly into the production process – efficiently, sustainably and reliably.

How it works

INDUSTRIAL WASTE HEAT RECOVERY

Modern heat pump systems efficiently raise waste heat from a low temperature level to the temperature required by the process. The underlying technology is proven, reliable and designed to meet the demands of industrial applications.

INTEGRATED Energy Systems

by YANMAR Energy System

YANMAR Energy System develops customized solutions for the efficient recovery and use of industrial waste heat. By combining heat pumps, refrigeration systems and comprehensive system integration, we create energy solutions that are precisely tailored to each application – maximizing efficiency, sustainability and cost-effectiveness.

Every project benefits from decades of experience in industrial energy technology and extensive system expertise. The result: well-engineered, field-proven solutions designed for reliable operation and long-term value.

Naturally Efficient

ISOBUTANE as a Refrigerant

A key component of modern heat pump systems is the refrigerant. YANMAR Energy System consistently relies on natural refrigerants such as isobutane. Compared with many fluorinated refrigerants, they have a very low global warming potential (GWP), are not PFAS substances and are therefore well positioned with regard to current and foreseeable regulatory requirements.

Sustainable &
Regulation-Ready

Natural refrigerants offer very low GWP and strong long-term regulatory prospects, making them a sustainable choice for future-oriented heat pump systems.

Efficient & Cost-Effective

Excellent thermodynamic properties support high energy efficiency and low operating costs.

Future-Proof Technology

Proven and widely established technology offering strong long-term prospects and a high degree of investment security.

Suitable for a Wide Range of

Industrial Applications

Industrial waste heat recovery is not a niche solution – it can be applied across a wide range of industries and processes. From medium-sized production sites to large-scale megawatt installations, YANMAR develops scalable system solutions tailored to individual requirements.
