Installed in a Quad-Gen application (combined power, heat, cooling and CO2 fertigation) the microturbine configuration will include a specialized heat recovery module (HRM), two co-fired burners and a custom-designed Optimal cooling system. The 800 kW microturbine will be shipped in a five-bay enclosure to accommodate future expansion. The system's inherent modular architecture will allow the customer to increase capacity for an additional 200 kW, up to 1 megawatt (MW).
The microturbine will supply hot water to the glasshouse via a custom two-stage HRM. The first stage will provide high-temperature hot water (85-degreeC/185-degreeF) to the glasshouse heating system. The exhaust will be sent to two hot water boilers as combustion air. The boilers will be fitted with two
Capstone's microturbine technology is an excellent fit for CHP and CO2 fertigation in a greenhouse. Greenhouses usually provide the CO2 to enhance plant growth by using the exhaust from a natural gas boiler. In these applications, the clean exhaust from the microturbine delivers additional value, providing a richer stream of CO2 to the plants while maintaining very low CO, NOx and hydrocarbons.
