Applications
Select an application to see how our auxiliary process heaters support your waste treatment operation.
Municipal solid waste (MSW) and industrial waste streams have highly variable calorific values. Our indirect process heaters act as reliable auxiliary heat sources, sustaining primary and secondary combustion chamber temperatures at ≥850°C during low-CV waste periods — ensuring continuous compliance with IED and EN 850 regulatory requirements without manual intervention.

Key advantages for waste incineration and process destruction operations.
Regulatory Compliance Built In
Modulating burners automatically maintain ≥850°C chamber temperature regardless of incoming waste CV variation — avoiding exceedance events that trigger regulatory action.
Continuous 24/7 Operation
Designed for uninterrupted industrial duty. ~30 minute cold start, front-access panels for sub-2-hour service intervals, and free-floating tube bundle for long-term thermal cycling reliability.
No Cross-Contamination
Indirect heating completely isolates the auxiliary combustion from the waste stream — zero risk of flue gas, dioxins, or particulates entering auxiliary air or surrounding systems.
Multi-Fuel Flexibility
Switch between natural gas, LPG, and biogas without hardware changes. Ideal for waste-to-energy sites using recovered syngas as a secondary fuel source.
80–90% Thermal Efficiency
High-efficiency recuperative design minimises auxiliary fuel consumption — reducing operating cost per tonne of waste processed and improving overall plant energy balance.
Proven Industrial Reliability
20+ year service life expectancy. Free-floating tube bundle eliminates thermal stress cracking — the most common failure mode in high-temperature continuous-duty heat exchangers.
Retrofit-Ready
Auxiliary Heat
Connects as a standalone auxiliary heat source to your existing incineration system — no major structural changes, fully integrated with existing PLC/SCADA.
Compliance Gaps Cost More
Than the Auxiliary Fuel.
A single temperature exceedance event can trigger a regulatory stop notice, environmental agency investigation, and costly permit re-application. EcoHeat auxiliary heaters eliminate that risk — modulating automatically to hold ≥850°C regardless of what's in the waste stream, around the clock.
Modulating burner automatically compensates as waste calorific value drops — maintaining minimum regulatory temperature without operator intervention.
Full indirect separation — combustion gases, soot, and waste-stream byproducts never contact the auxiliary air or surrounding plant systems.
Free-floating tube bundle, front-access panels, and sub-2-hour service intervals keep your auxiliary system aligned with planned maintenance windows.
