POMPANO BEACH, Fla., Dec 08, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Cyclone Power Technologies
(Pink Sheets: CYPW) will present its small-scale waste heat recovery system at
the Powe r-Gen International conference, December 14-16 in Orlando, FL.
The WHE-Gen 10 prototype to be unveiled at Power-Gen provides up to 10kW of
renewable power per unit from the waste heat of small industrial furnaces,
ovens, kilns and flares. This is the first system of its size that can provide
facility owners with an attractive financial payback by creating electricity
from otherwise wasted thermal energy. Multiple units can be coupled together to
provide up to 100kW of green power, and modified systems are being designed to
run off the exhaust of diesel engines and turbines, as well as biomass
combustion.
"We know that there is a huge market for waste heat recovery systems in the size
and heat input range of the WHE-Gen 10," stated Christopher Nelson, Executive
Vice President of Cyclone and Managing Director of its waste heat operations.
"We look forward to meeting with potential distributors and manufacturers at
Power-Gen Intern ational, who can provide worldwide sales coverage for these much
needed renewable power units."
A limited number of WHE-Gen 10 beta units are available for installation in
pilot sites, such as the one Cyclone is currently conducting with its customer,
Bent Glass Design. Commercial production is expected to commence in 2011. Based
on U.S. Department of Energy statistics, Cyclone estimates that there are well
over $250,000,000 of potential small-scale waste heat installations in the
United States alone that would benefit from a WHE-Gen system.
