Capstone Microturbine vs. Infinity Turbine ORC

Capstone Microturbine Natural Gas/Propane/Diesel comparison to the Infinity Turbine Organic Rankine Cycle waste heat to power. The Infinity Turbine by Infinity Turbine LLC is a geothermal, solar and waste heat (industrial waste heat, gas turbine waste heat, diesel engine waste heat) Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) turbine that generates electricity or via a PTO shaft horsepower for pumps, compressors and other equipment. Excess heat from the system output can be used for CHP applications, including desalination, hot water and process heat. A add-on cavitation disc can produce steam, even from low grade heat (below 100 C / 212 F). The turbine will operate off of geothermal or low grade industrial waste heat. It will also operation from solar collector heat, as long as there is a 125 deg. F (65 deg C) heat differential between the evaporator and condenser. The condenser may operate off of a secondary heat exchanger for CHP hot water or chiller applications. It may also be used in tandem with a air cooling tower, or ground based geothermal system. Since the unit is skid mounted, it can be used on site or made portable by installing in a standard 20 foot ISO Ocean Shipping Container. Available in 60hz or 50hz, this unit can be used and shipped complete anywhere in the world. The Infinity Turbine generator size ranges from 30, 80, 250 and 500 kw per one 20-40 foot module. Additional modules may be combined for larger power outputs. For Geothermal applications (Enhanced Geothermal

    I think its a bit sad and not very “smart” to make a camapaign where one generator for potential biomass (biogas) energy is shown as the much better one then the other. Maybe you underestimate a bit, that both technologies should work together to build up a better infrastructure for decentral gas energy. Both technologies really have their advantages and it depends on the circumstances and there is more then enough money potential for both technologies!

    It’s comparing and contrasting two power generators. They both have turbines, they both produce power. You are correct – you could fit about 10 x C30′s in a 20 ft. shipping container, however you can put a IT250 or IT500 in a 20 ft. shipping container, which includes the hot water heat exchanger for CHP.
