Representations

LSM Consulting represents

Fivemasa (ES)

Fivemasa designs and supplies complete systems for flue gas treatment for a wide range of industries, including waste-to-energy and biomass plants.
With its head and engineering office in Bilbao and a specialized manufacturing workshop in Valladolid, Fivemasa delivers both individual equipment and full turnkey installations for new or existing lines.

40 years of experience and full in-house engineering, design and fabrication — covering all key components including flue gas fans — enable Fivemasa to provide reliable, efficient and cost-effective solutions that meet the most stringent environmental standards.

Dürr-Cyplan ORC systems (DE)

LSM Consulting is Authorised Business Partner for Dürr-Cyplan ORC systems

The Dürr-Cyplan Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is a proven technology for generating electricity from decentralized heat sources, even at low temperatures. In combination with the use of waste heat or renewable heat sources, Cyplan® ORC solutions generate CO2-free electricity through thermal recovery. This enables companies to profitably utilize unused thermal energy within a temperature range of 90–600°C, lower their electricity costs, produce useful heat, improve their carbon footprint, and strengthen their competitiveness.
