India-based Triveni Turbines Ltd has been a leading player in the Indian energy sector for over 50 years and is a driving force for sustainability initiatives across a wide range of industrial sectors including steel, distilleries, cement, food processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceuticals, petroleum refineries, chemicals, petrochemicals, sugar, and fertilisers.

Customised steam turbines for diverse needs

As a market leader in the sub-100MW steam turbine market, Triveni Turbines has expanded its reach to nearly 80 countries around the world, having installed over 6,000 turbines to date with a combined capacity of over 16GW. What truly sets the company apart is its ability to provide sustainable and customised solutions tailored to the unique needs of each industrial sector.

Given the current global climate and rising fuel costs, customers are looking for sustainable energy solutions — the chemicals, steel, and cement industries alone account for about 60% of industrial energy usage and 70% of CO2 emissions.

TTL is helping these sectors become more energy-efficient, by deploying its high-performance turbines and contributing to global efforts to meet the ‘net zero’ emissions 2050 target.

Triveni Turbines offers a variety of steam turbines ranging from 3 to 100MW. Its advanced technology ensures top performance and efficiency — for example, it provides turbines for waste heat recovery in the steam and cement sectors, setting new efficiency standards. Furthermore, Triveni Turbines’ high-speed axial exhaust turbines are enabling world-renowned steel manufacturers in South Korea to generate 113MW of power and provide process steam. Waste heat from the blast furnace is utilised in three steam turbines – one of which is 41MW.

Another example of a 50MW condensing steam turbine generator (STG) with double extraction and triple bleed, operating with high inlet steam parameters has been installed and operated in a cogeneration (captive power and process plant) setting situated in the chemicals’ hub of India.

Turning waste heat into energy

Meanwhile, in the cement manufacturing sector, Triveni Turbines’ turbines are turning waste heat into power. A prime example of this is a 22MW turbine installed in the western part of India. The turbine has been operating reliably since August 2020. This has allowed a major cement player to operate a 7 million tonnes per annum cement plant at full capacity and has led to reduced dependence on the grid for power and has improved plant returns and efficiency. Triveni Turbines’ has also installed multiple turbines in waste-heat recovery applications for the cement industry, replacing an earlier installed turbine module with a higher capacity. These turbines are offering best-in-class efficiencies for the customers and are contributing to the industry’s success by increasing energy efficiency.

Triveni Turbines is also a leader in the waste-to-energy sector. In Europe, the company has installed a 15.6MW turbine that uses steam generated from refuse-derived fuel (RDF) to produce electricity. Typically, steam turbine installations for waste-to-energy applications are found in the 30MW range, a segment to which the company has tailored its products to meet specific requirements. With the waste-to-energy market expected to grow steadily, Triveni Turbines is well-positioned to provide solutions to meet this rising demand.

The pulp and paper industry is also focused on improving energy efficiency, which is attained through increased use of biomass (wood waste as fuel) power generation. With many paper companies globally looking at energy conservation through eco-friendly ways, this will lead to more opportunities for steam turbine OEMs.

In the oil and gas industry, every ounce of efficiency counts. That is where Triveni Turbines’ API product line comes in, delivering turbines built to withstand the toughest conditions. From driving air blowers to powering pumps, its turbines keep critical processes running smoothly, day-in and day-out. These turbines, designed to API 611 and API 612 specifications and SHELL DEP standards and are operational in many of the largest reformer packages, commissioned by reputed European EPC vendors.

Triveni Turbines goes beyond merely addressing current challenges, the company is focused on future advancements. Its high-power-density steam turbines, capable of exceeding 12,000rev/min, are designed to be compact, efficient, and customised for markets with high vacuum needs. Alongside this, its dedicated support teams ensure they provide not just steam turbines, but a complete installation and commissioning package and spares support. With expertise in both brownfield and greenfield plant architectures, Triveni Turbines delivers steam turbine solutions that contribute to the manufacturing industry’s success.

Mr S Narayana Prasad, Triveni Turbines CEO, concluded: “Triveni Turbines is more than a manufacturer — it is a partner in the success of 20-plus industries. By delivering customised, efficient steam turbine solutions, the company helps industries enhance their energy efficiency and sustainability. Its dedication to innovation and customer support solidifies their position as a key player in the global energy landscape.”
