Eco-Tech Ceram technology, in three points
Eco-Tech Ceram specialises in recovering industrial waste heat and converting it into useful heat or electricity. Its Eco-Stock solution captures and stores heat at temperatures of up to 1,000°C, improving industrial energy efficiency and reducing CO₂ emissions.
01 The solution
Storage and recovery of high-temperature industrial heat.
02 Technology principle
Eco-Stock® captures and stores high-temperature waste heat, then releases it as useful heat or electricity.
03 Applications
- Metallurgy
- Ceramics
- Heat recovery
- Power-to-heat-to-power
Eco-Tech Ceram focuses on recovering industrial waste heat to decarbonise industry. It offers sustainable and profitable heat-recovery solutions such as Eco-Stock®, a thermal-storage technology designed for high temperatures. Artificial intelligence and financing solutions support this approach and make the energy transition easier to implement. The company is also developing power-to-heat-to-power solutions to address the intermittency of renewable energy.
At the forefront of industrial heat recovery
More than one-third of the energy consumed worldwide is lost as heat—equivalent to 2,450 million tonnes of CO₂ each year. Against a backdrop of volatile gas prices, difficult investment decisions and the climate emergency, recovering industrial waste heat has become a priority.
Based in Toulouse, Eco-Tech Ceram is an industrial thermal-engineering company and a three-time winner of the Worldwide Innovation Challenge. It specialises in waste-heat recovery for heavy industries such as metallurgy and ceramics. Its financed solutions enable manufacturers to turn lost energy into sustainable, clean and profitable energy while materially reducing CO₂ emissions.
Eco-Stock® is a durable and cost-effective thermal-storage technology capable of capturing industrial heat at temperatures up to 1,000°C. Eco-Tech Ceram also works on energy efficiency, energy conversion and lower production costs. Its digital tools and financing models help industrial companies undertake a funded, lower-risk energy transition.
