Seeking a company that specializes in heat reclaimation

[rpelfrey]

I am investigating the cost vs return to use heat reclaimation or possibly generate electricity via the stacks on a heat treat furnace and two melt furnaces. Can anyone direct me to more information or a specific company.

try googling for "waste heat recovery". here's one from PG&E, the company that became (in)famous because of that brockovich movie...

Also search for "Cogeneration."

I used to work for a company that sells systems for heat recovery. Boiler stack economizers heat water from boiler stacks, etc. The systems they sell are very simple and effient, and are only used for heating water.
