About us

Decarbonising heat in manufacturing industries by integrating Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) systems with High Temperature Heat Pumps (HTHP) hot water generators and Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) electricity generators.

We have extensive experience of integrating best available proven Heat Recovery technologies into manufacturing industries operating kilns, furnaces, incinerators, and ovens.  Successful projects require a turnkey system designed to operate with significant reduction in carbon emissions, minimal operating cost and maximum financial return. Our turnkey service starts with an initial proposal, to feasibility study, to full design specification, project management, installation, commissioning and the lifetime maintenance of the system.

We undertake a heat recovery survey of your site, collecting process performance data for input into our Waste Heat to Power Forecasting model. From the data the customers financial and environmental benefits are determined against the investment cost of the Heatcatcher system. Our technical backgrounds in the fields of process, chemical, electrical, refrigeration, ventilation engineering and energy management, provide the wide range of competences needed to ensure a successful Waste Heat Recovery project.

To determine the value of the waste heat available for decarbonisation at your plant contact our heat recovery engineers on 00 44 (0)1273 358 520 or email info@heatcatcher.com


The Heatcatcher System

Whether you require low carbon hot water or electricity, recovering waste heat from a low temperature source, waste heat is the input to our Heatcatcher System. 


Decarbonising Hot Water

At the heart of a Heatcatcher System generating hot water, a High Temperature Heat Pump (HTHP) recovering low temperature heat rejected from cooling systems, exhaust ducts or effluent water into high temperature hot water above 70°C.

HTHP - How it Works

With the market for High Temperature Heat Pumps (HTHP) developing rapidly, with many manufacturers across Europe offering both standard range and larger bespoke equipment, Heatcatcher is independent and best placed to select and integrate the best available technology to match your waste heat source.

Decarbonising Electricity

At the heart of a Heatcatcher System for generating electricity is an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) capable of converting waste heat temperatures as low as 80°C into carbon free electricity.

ORC How it Works

With over 30 different manufacturers producing ORC generators across Europe and North America all with differing technology ranges and costs per kW of power generation, Heatcatcher is independent and best placed to select and integrate the best available technology to match your waste heat source.
