Manufacturing industries

Whether for construction materials, medicines, plastics, car tyres or paper – the highest demand for energy in the manufacturing industry relates to process heating applications, drive and conveying technology, room heating and lighting. Fail-safe, independent energy supply, high efficiency and system availability are the key factors for businesses to reduce their production costs and increase their competitiveness. Bosch delivers appropriate energy solutions, tailored to the processes, for reliable and cost-efficient production.

Chemistry
Chemistry

Superheated steam for starting up steam turbines to supply electricity. Steam for various processes such as steam cracking, distillation, steam stripping, for polymerisation, as well as for heating up reactors.

Pharmaceuticals
Pharmaceuticals

Supply of pure steam generators and distillation units through conventional steam boilers. Steam is also used for cleaning, sterilising and depyrogenation of glass containers, as well as for humidifying air conditioning systems.

Paper
Paper

Hot water, steam and electricity for thermal pulping and treatment processes, as well as heating the cylinders, for pressing, transporting and drying the paper rolls.

Automotive industry
Automotive industry

Steam, hot water and electricity for painting and drying processes, vulcanisation, heating of tyre moulds and for heating and cooling the production rooms and offices.

Refinery
Refinery

Steam, electricity and hot water for heating hydrocarbon mixtures in separating columns, preheating crude oil, in distillation processes like fractional distillation and for heating piping systems.

Construction materials
Construction materials

Steam supply of autoclaves for hardening cellular concrete and sand-lime bricks, for steaming wood and for the production of veneer and chipboard.

Textiles

Steam for dying, washing, cleaning, drying, pressing and folding in the textile production process and in laundries, for steaming as a textile finishing process as well as for distilling solvents.

Plastics
Plastics

Hot water and steam for thermal drying processes, for foaming of, for example, polystyrene and for forming processes.

Recycling
Recycling

Ammonia recovery from waste water by steam stripping. Steam for separating oil and water mixtures, cleaning and disinfection of reusable bottles or for pelletising waste wood.
