DSE stands for Direct Steam Expansion.
Steam is a common energy carrier at most industrial sites, often
generated by a central boiler unit. Daily and seasonal variations, and
intermittent steam demand by batch production may lead to frequent
dumping of unused steam flows. Such excess steam may feed an
expander to generate useful, “free” electricity for local use.
Also where steam pressure needs to be reduced, Tocircle's multi-phase expander can replace a throttle valve, generating electric or rotational power from the differential pressure.
