By recycling heat directly into the combustion process, Wilson Turbo Power systems reduce fuel consumption by 20–35%. They stabilize flame profiles, enhance burner longevity, and support faster furnace ramp-up times. With flexible integration options—including modular skid units and vertical or horizontal configurations—these systems can be easily retrofitted into existing lines or designed into new installations with minimal disruption.
Operational Efficiency
Wilson Turbo Power heat recovery systems utilize ceramic rotary regenerators (CRRs) specifically engineered for high-temperature oxy-fuel combustion. These systems recover up to 98% of available thermal energy by continuously transferring heat from flue gas to incoming oxygen and fuel streams. With ceramic media rated beyond 1,800°F (1,000°C), they maintain durability and performance in extreme thermal environments, outperforming traditional metallic recuperators.
Technical Innovation
Oxy-fuel combustion already produces fewer nitrogen oxides and less total flue gas than air-fuel systems. When paired with Wilson Turbo Power’s regenerative technology, these emissions are reduced even further—helping clients lower their Scope 1 CO₂ footprint and meet stringent NOx regulations. The result is a cleaner, more sustainable thermal process that aligns with corporate ESG goals and regulatory compliance frameworks worldwide.

Unlock ultra-efficient combustion with regenerative technology.
At Wilson Turbo Power, we provide advanced ceramic rotary regenerators (CRRs) designed to dramatically improve the performance of oxy-fuel combustion systems. Whether you're in glass production, aluminum recycling, or steel reheating, our heat recovery solutions help you recover waste energy, reduce fuel use, and cut emissions—without sacrificing flame performance.
What is Oxy-Fuel Combustion Heat Recovery?
Oxy-fuel systems burn fuel using pure oxygen instead of air, producing:
-
Higher flame temperatures
-
Lower flue gas volumes
-
Cleaner emissions
When paired with a Cerotex CRR, the exhaust heat from combustion is captured and recycled—preheating incoming oxygen or fuel streams for the next burn cycle. This boosts overall system efficiency, reduces energy costs, and significantly lowers CO₂ output.
Engineered for Demanding Industrial Environments
CRR heat recovery systems are designed to withstand the harshest combustion conditions, including extreme thermal cycling, high radiant heat loads, and exposure to corrosive flue gases. Our ceramic rotary regenerators feature high-purity ceramic materials with excellent thermal shock resistance, ensuring consistent performance and long service life. Unlike metallic heat exchangers, Wilson CRRs maintain structural integrity at temperatures exceeding 1,800°F (1,000°C), making them ideal for high-intensity processes such as glass melting, steel reheating, and non-ferrous metal refining.
Flexible Integration & Retrofitting
Whether you're upgrading an existing oxy-fuel furnace or designing a new one, Wilson systems are built for easy integration. Our modular and customizable architecture allows installation into a variety of ducting layouts, burner configurations, and flow schemes. We offer both horizontal and vertical orientations, as well as skid-mounted units for rapid deployment.
For customers transitioning from conventional recuperators or direct-fired air systems, our engineering team provides full system modeling and ROI projections to ensure a cost-effective retrofit.
Data-Driven Performance Optimization
Wilson systems can be equipped with real-time monitoring and control tools, allowing plant managers and process engineers to track thermal performance, fuel savings, and system efficiency.
Through sensor-based analytics and optional IoT integration, facilities can monitor oxygen preheat temperatures, exhaust conditions, and regenerator cycling rates. This data empowers smarter combustion control, predictive maintenance, and greater operational visibility—further supporting digital transformation initiatives in industrial energy systems.
Sustainability with Industrial-Scale Impact
In a global push toward decarbonization, Wilson Turbo Power heat recovery solutions provide a practical pathway to lower CO₂ and NOx emissions without sacrificing production. By reducing total fuel input and improving combustion stability, our regenerative systems help clients meet environmental regulations, qualify for energy-efficiency incentives, and achieve long-term sustainability goals.
Whether you're working toward ISO 50001 certification or corporate ESG benchmarks, Wilson Turbo Power technology supports measurable, compliance-ready outcomes for energy-intensive industries.
As energy markets evolve and regulatory pressure intensifies, industrial manufacturers need scalable, future-proof solutions. Wilson Turbo Power’s regenerative heat recovery systems are engineered not only for today's combustion challenges but also for tomorrow's innovations—including hydrogen-ready combustion, low-carbon fuel compatibility, and integrated waste heat-to-power systems.
