Thermal Energy Recovery Technologist – Level 2: Advanced

Course is HRDC Claimable.

Next Training Date: 16 - 17 July 2024

Training Summary

For TERT Level 2 competency, participants are exposed to more advanced Pinch Technology techniques to optimise capital and operating cost of the thermal energy recovery system, further recovery potential from process modification analysis, combined heat and power system integration and analysis, retrofit analysis and exploring multiple sites energy exchange potential. Participants need to submit the completed excel calculation as proof they have mastered the competency.

Course Objective

    1. Understand the importance of heat exchanger network retrofit.
    2. Apply the steps to perform heat exchanger network retrofit.
    3. Perform economic analysis and cost-benefit analysis for heat exchanger network design.
    4. Perform retrofit case study.
    5. Understand the basic concept of process modification.
    6. Understand the combined heat & power system.

Certification Level Overview

Thermal Energy Recovery Technologist (TERT) is a professional training to develop more global experts in thermal energy recovery system based on Pinch Technology.  Participants from this course are awarded competency certification based on the level of completion.  Be among the pioneers and expert in thermal energy for processes, differentiating yourself from other energy auditors which focusses only on utility system audit.  Pinch Technology is known to save energy between 15 to 90%, in comparison to utility audit which only saves up to 30%.  The technology also commonly provides an attractive payback period of fewer than three years, as compared to the renewable energy system. 

Past Projects

The industrial sector accounts for about one-third of the global energy consumption, with up to 50% of energy ultimately lost in the form of waste heat in hot exhaust gases, in cooling water, and on heated surfaces and products [US Department of Energy]. Recovery of thermal energy from waste heat presents the biggest cost-saving opportunity for energy efficiency improvement in the industrial sector.

    1. USD 12.8 million/year on energy savings by Retrofit of Heat Recovery System (Refinery)
    2. USD 4.1 million/year on energy savings by Total Site Heat Integration Retrofit Study (Middle Distillate)
    3. USD 0.75 million/year on energy and water recovery savings (Oleochemical)

Reason to Join

If you are an energy manager, energy auditor, or energy service company.

    1. Equip yourself as a TERT to manage thermal energy. The anticipated enactment of the Malaysia Energy Efficiency & Conservation Act (EECA) shall unlock opportunities for energy managers with the competency to audit, manage, and optimize thermal energy systems apart from electrical energy.
    2. Gain competency to perform practical retrofit of existing facilities. Learn from certified experts and practitioners on how to perform optimal thermal energy recovery analysis to retrofit existing facilities practically, and gain the support of top management to achieve triple bottom-line benefits.
    3. Offer value-added energy audit services for the ASEAN community. If you are an energy auditor, you will be able to offer value-added energy audit services to your customer by incorporating thermal energy recovery of the process. You can also offer energy audit services under the newly announced Energy Audit Conditional Grant (EACG) which supports energy auditing of both electrical and thermal energy. Widespread and holistic implementation of Energy Management System cover­ing thermal and electrical energy in the region is expected to significantly increase the demand for thermal energy analysis experts in Malaysia and across ASEAN.

If thermal energy is the leading energy cost in your manufacturing site.

Huge potential reduction in energy bills from thermal heat recovery.

Over 7000 successful process integration applications worldwide, including our project experiences have resulted in thermal energy savings of between 10 to 50%, and a payback period of less than 3 years. Our recent petroleum refinery retrofit project for example amassed an annual savings of USD 12 Million.

“We already have heat recovery systems in place. How could we benefit more?’’

Our experience shows that plant renovation, plant expansion, the addition of new product lines, consideration of total site, and area-wide integration could lead to ample energy cost-saving potentials.
