Waste Heat Utilization
Our Approach
Limited awareness of the potential of waste heat recovery, low-temperature heat streams, small energy volumes, or complex process environments are key reasons why industrial processes still release large amounts of thermal energy unused.
With its waste heat utilization technologies, GKT captures and upgrades these energy streams and reintegrates them into the process energy system - enabling a zero-waste-heat future.

Our Use Case
Inside a pioneering project: BASF Ludwigshafen
As EPC partner, GKT is implementing one of the world’s most powerful industrial large-scale heat pump systems for BASF.
The plant, with up to 50 MWth, converts industrial waste heat into fossil-free process steam and can reduce up to 100,000 tons of CO₂ per year.
Commissioning is planned for 2027.

WHAT OUR TEAM SAYS
“Waste heat is one of the most underestimated energy sources in industry – and a real gamechanger when it is turned into usable process energy.”
