  • SYSTEM FOR RECOVERY OF ENERGY FROM A RESIDUAL GAS
    Publication number: 20240052798
    Abstract: A system for conversion of energy in a residual gas generated in an industrial process. The system includes a combustion chamber having a fuel inlet configured to receive a flow of residual gas for combustion in the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber further includes an air inlet. The system also includes a Stirling engine configured to convert heat from the combustion chamber into mechanical energy, the Stirling engine having a heat exchanger, wherein at least a portion of the heat exchanger extends into the combustion chamber. The system further includes a residual gas duct arranged for transporting the residual gas at atmospheric or near atmospheric pressure and an air duct arranged for transporting air at atmospheric or near atmospheric pressure.

  • Arrangement and method for removal of particulates in a gas flow
    Patent number: 8387363
    Abstract: An arrangement for removal of particulates in a gas flow includes at least one gas passage that is at least partly surrounded by a porous material. An arrangement for exposing the gas passage to sound that induces gas movements in a direction towards the porous material is provided. A method for removal of particulates in a gas flow is also provided.

  • Particulate filtration device
    Patent number: 8337761
    Abstract: A particulate filtration device includes a filter with a feed inlet side for a feed gas and an filtrate outlet for a filtrate, feed gas channels and filtrate channels, and one or more diaphragms between the feed inlet side and the filtrate outlet. Opposite to the feed inlet side a particulate outlet is arranged with a collector compartment attached to the particulate outlet for collecting particulates retained in the feed gas channels.
