Optimise Process Heat: Hering Heat Recovery Systems for NZ Industry
In today’s competitive landscape, every efficiency gain counts. For industrial and commercial businesses in New Zealand, one of the most significant yet often overlooked opportunities for cost savings and emissions reduction lies in heat recovery. You’re likely expending valuable energy, only for a significant portion of that heat to literally go up in smoke – discharged as waste into the atmosphere.
At Tubman Heating, we partner with industry leaders who deliver proven, robust solutions. That’s why we’re proud to bring you insights into Hering AG heat recovery systems. With over a century of German engineering excellence, Hering has been at the forefront of thermal transfer technology since 1884, delivering custom-engineered solutions that are built to last and designed to perform.
The Unseen Gold: Why Heat Recovery Matters for Your Business
Think about your operations: boilers, ovens, furnaces, exhaust vents, cooling systems. All of these generate heat, much of which is simply wasted. A Hering heat recovery system captures this valuable “waste heat” and re-purposes it, transforming it into usable energy for other processes.
For New Zealand businesses, the benefits are compelling:
- Significant Energy Cost Reduction: By reusing heat you’ve already paid to generate, you dramatically cut down on your primary fuel consumption. This directly translates to lower operating expenses and improved profit margins.
- Reduced Carbon Footprint: Lower energy consumption directly equates to fewer greenhouse gas emissions. For businesses committed to sustainability and meeting evolving environmental targets, heat recovery is a powerful step towards decarbonisation.
- Enhanced Operational Efficiency: Recovered heat can preheat boiler feedwater, warm combustion air, or provide hot water for cleaning processes, reducing the load on your primary heating systems and improving their overall efficiency.
- Increased Energy Independence: By optimising your internal energy use, you become less susceptible to fluctuating energy prices and supply uncertainties.
- Prolonged Equipment Lifespan: By reducing the workload on primary heating equipment, you can potentially extend its operational life and lower long-term maintenance costs.
Hering AG: Custom-Engineered Excellence for Diverse NZ Industries
What sets Hering apart, and why are they a perfect fit for the unique demands of New Zealand’s industrial and commercial landscape?
Hering doesn’t just offer off-the-shelf solutions. They are globally recognised specialists in custom heat exchangers and turnkey systems. This means their solutions are:
- Tailored to Your Specific Needs: Whether you’re a dairy factory needing to preheat process water, a sawmill drying timber, or a large commercial building looking to reduce your heating bill, Hering designs solutions precisely for your application, fluid types (gas-to-gas, liquid-to-gas, liquid-to-liquid), temperatures, and pressures.
- Robust & Reliable: With over a century of experience and 100% “Made in Germany” quality control, Hering heat exchangers are known for their durability, high plant availability, and reliability – critical factors for continuous operations.
- Internationally Certified: Hering operates to the most modern test standards and certifications, including compliance with international codes (like ASME and EU-PED). While Tubman Heating ensures local WorkSafe NZ compliance for installation, starting with internationally recognised quality provides a strong foundation.
- Integrated System Solutions: Hering excels in developing fully integrated heat recovery systems. This means they can supply not just the heat exchanger, but also related components like steam generators, safety and control equipment, bypass systems, and complete control technology, often in “plug-and-play” containerised solutions for simpler integration into your existing plant.
Imagine the Possibilities for Your Business:
- Food Processors: Capturing heat from exhaust gases to pre-heat boiler feedwater or process water, significantly reducing boiler fuel consumption.
- Timber Processors: Recovering heat from drying kilns to pre-heat incoming air, boosting drying efficiency.
- Manufacturing Plants: Utilising waste heat from industrial processes for space heating or other production steps.
- Commercial Buildings: Recovering heat from ventilation exhaust to pre-condition fresh air, reducing HVAC load.
