The patented Super Heat Generator (SHG) complements our innovative Thermal Multi Effect Distillation/Evaporation (MED/E) system by optimising latent heat transfer and increasing overall efficiency. It connects to the MED/E system through our SHG-Variable Connect-MED-CC, enabling multiple SHGs to be used as required to generate the thermal input for the MED/E system. SHG steam discharge points are optimised according to the number of effects or evaporators.

 

It lowers the energy traditionally required to produce the necessary thermal output, delivering savings in both operating expenditure (OPEX) and capital expenditure (CAPEX).

 

​Including - SHG Plus+: This advanced generator, known as SHG Plus+, is an integral part of the STEPS system, contributing to heat generation capabilities. 

 

Energy Recycling: The SHG is designed to integrate with the HPFPC or a fuel-fired or electrically powered boiler, effectively recycling the steam's latent heat of evaporation within the system. The latent heat of evaporation comprises approximately 80% to 90% of the steam's total energy.

​

1. Optimized Output: Through recycling, the SHG supplies 80% of the required steam, while the Solar Thermal Boiler provides the remaining 20%. 

2. Market Leader: The SHG optimizes steam recycling for efficient energy generation. It delivers enhanced Performance Ratio’s (PR) and Gained Output Ratio’s (GOR) available in thermal desalination, positioning the system ahead of other technologies. 

3. GOR and PR Benchmarks 

a.     Gained Output Ratio (GOR): [kgs/hr distillate] / [kgs/hr of input steam.

b.     Performance Ratio (PR): [kgs/hr distillate] / [MJ/hr of energy].
