Skyven Arcturus: Steam-Generating Industrial Heat Pump
Skyven Arcturus is a mechanical vapor recompression steam-generating heat pump (MVR SGHP) that captures low-temperature heat rejected from industrial processes, increases the temperature of that heat (as high as 420°F / 215°C), and uses it to generate steam at the same temperature, pressure, and quality of existing boilers. Existing boilers remain in place as a backup to provide system redundancy.
- Increased Energy Efficiency: 3x more efficient than standard natural gas boilers.
- High Performance: Achieves higher coefficient of performance (COP) and higher temperature lift than any other heat pump on the market.
- Environmentally Friendly: Water refrigerant is inexpensive, non-toxic, and has 0 Global Warming Potential (GWP).
- Significantly Reduces CO2 Emissions: On average, eliminates 57% of facility-level emissions and up to 100% of process steam emissions.
On average, we can eliminate 57% of facility-level emissions and up to 100% of process steam emissions with zero capital expenditure.
