Maturity stage TRL 7 - Prototype testing in the real world

A major amount of the energy consumed in the industry is wasted as lost heat, which represents millions of tons of CO2 uselessly produced. Eco-Tech Ceram’s solution is to recover the heat contained in industrial fumes and store it in refractory ceramics made from industrial co-products. This accumulated heat can either be used as a heating source – hot air at constant temperature level is provided (up to 1000°C) – or be converted into electricity.

The Environmental Benefits

  • One Ecostock unit can prevent up to 8000t of CO2 on its lifetime
  • For each unit, 1 MWh of CO2 free high temperature heat can be delivered
  • Storage materials are made from mineral industrial co-products

The Financial Benefits

  • Modular and mobile solution that allows low capital expenditure
  • Produces heat at a price up to 80% lower than heat obtained with natural gas
