IGS - Ingenieurbüro für Energie- und Umwelttechnik

Since 1990 we are a consultant in the field of energy and environmental technology . Key sectors are breweries , beverage and food industries . The comparison of farms for breweries has been offered for over 20 years . Hundreds of breweries of all sizes have participated to date . The well-founded business consulting is built on this statistical basis. The proposed measures are assessed according to commercial principles . Currently, grants for energy advice can be requested .

In many processes, particularly in the case of process steam supply,  flash steam is produced, which leaks unused into the atmosphere. We have developed a method in which the exhaust vapor is condensed again and used to supply heat consumers. The condensate is simultaneously used for heating and cooling processes. Possible heat consumers are heating stations, warmwater- generation, heating of feed water, absorption chillers etc.

Since 2007 a large-scale plant is installed at the Michelin tire plants in Bad Kreuznach with a condensing capacity of > 6 MW, which has exceeded all expectations. Another plant was commissioned at MRW in Homburg in 2011. In addition to the heat recovery from steam, today also heat from the exhaust gases of the gas turbine power plant and a cogeneration plant and from other plants is obtained. Besides the two absorption chillers, each with 1 MW cooling capacity, a third AKA now will be installed with 2.5 MW cooling capacity.

We offer our developed and patented Oxytherm® system for reducing steam losses during thermal degassing of feedwater . The degassing is automatically adjusted to the operating conditions. The savings amount to about 60-95 % of today's losses .

In upcoming expansion and replacement investments and for new plants we are planning partners . We handle your projects from the basic evaluation , preliminary and detailed planning , approval procedures , tenders, awarding up to commissioning . Upon request, we also act as a general contractor . Thus you will receive all the services from one single source . Energy relevant inspections of plants are created as well as court and private opinion . The owner is a publicly appointed and official expert for thermal engineering.

We also plan the switch to renewable forms of energy for you . Domestic fuels such as wood chips or wood pellets are in high demand . With a conversion to biomass the dependence on foreign producers can be drastically reduced . A strengthening of regional value creation is a positive side effect .

For 10 years we design and build turnkey plants for solar power generation , from the PV system on a single family house to solar power plant in the MW range .
