Archimedes hydro screw industry gets a much needed BOOST
Since the introduction of the Feed in tariff (FITs) in the UK
In March 2010 for Hydro Power: the Hydro Energy and especially the Hydro Screw.
Further BOOST has been received from some high profile Archimedes screw installations, like the installation of four Archimedean screw turbines being installed at the QUEEN’S favourite residence at Windsor castle, and the completion of the Tees barrage world’s first combined screw pumps and screw generators at one of the 2012 London Olympic venues.
The Archimedes screw turbine industry
Is dominated by manufacturers based in Holland and Germany; however, there are twice as many manufactures of Archimedes screw pumps that are used in the waste water and Sewage industry through out the world. These same companies are dominating the screw generator industry or working towards converting their screw pumps in to screw turbines, as it happens, the turbine is just the reverse of the Archimedean screw pump.
With all this buzz and competition, gradually some new and exciting new hydrodynamic screw products and new manufactures have joined the race, and some with
Innovative and exciting ideas that will change the hydro screw industry
Namely:
Plastic and composite material Archimedes screws are the new comers
- In the industry that uses reinforced plastic body and a steel trough tube or shaft. The advantages are that it is rust proof and light but cost more then the traditional steel Archimedean screws with limited range of up to 10 KW
- There is one UK Company that has come up with
A revolutionary flat pack Archimedes screw system that is up to 70 % cheaper
- Than the cost of a traditional Archimedes Generator. Their hydro screw generator is designed and specified in UK but the components are sourced from the emerging economies throughout the world and assembled on site.
Strategic sourcing, flat pack transportation and low profit margins are the main contributing factors in the cost reduction
- And these machines are huge, bulky and heavy says Bob the managing director of Pump and Generator.
Pump and Generator are selling their 50 KWatt system for as little as £29,777.00.
Due to huge demand and high volume of calls, they are only excepting email enquiries, to contact them click here.
