H2 Readiness

Works with hydrogen up to 100%

Vitomax RW waste heat boiler for hot water production

Viessmann waste heat boilers are designed using the fire tube:flue tube principle. Hot flue gas passes through tube bundles, where heat is transferred to the water inside the boiler body.

To minimize radiation losses, this waste heat boiler is equipped with thermal insulation and a metal casing. Like all Vitomax boilers, the boiler support evenly distributes the load over a large floor area.

Hydrogen up to 100 percent

In chemical production, such as chlorine production and other industrial processes, much of the hydrogen gas is wasted and released into the atmosphere. Vitomax boilers, which can operate on 100% hydrogen with the appropriate burner, offer a cost-effective and efficient solution. At the same time, significant amounts of climate-damaging CO2 emissions are avoided .

The operating principle of waste heat boilers

Waste heat boilers use heat from flue gases produced by burning fuel or hot exhaust air from industrial processes to produce hot water.

With or without auxiliary combustion

Waste heat boilers without combustion equipment use only flue gases and exhaust air to generate hot water. Waste heat boilers with combustion equipment are conventional boilers with a burner and waste heat recovery.

The choice of design option depends on the customer’s requirements.

Waste heat boiler with additional combustion

Traditional Vitomax LW / Vitomax HW with additional flues for waste heat

All Vitomax RW fuel-fired boilers are suitable for burning up to 100% hydrogen, provided our general conditions for the use of H2 are met .
