Progress of the Third Interim Stage and Achieved Results
During the implementation of Project No. 5.1.1.2.i.0/1/22/A/CFLA/006, the necessary measurements and data analysis for the wood drying process have been carried out. Based on the collected data, the required calculations have been completed, resulting in the following achievements:
  • The electrical control and automation distribution panel for the heat recovery system has been installed and connected. It is currently being tested together with the kiln and heat recovery control software.
  • Control software for the drying kilns and the heat recovery system has been developed. The software is being tested under real operating conditions and continuously refined.
  • 90% of the air duct system has been installed.
  • Upon completion of the required tests, the heat recovery unit will be connected using the pre-fabricated air duct fittings.
  • The air-to-air heat exchanger for the heat recovery unit has been assembled, and testing of the unit is currently underway.
  • All procurement activities have been completed:
    • The air-to-water heat exchanger for the heat recovery system will be delivered within the next week.

Recovery Fund Operational Programme

Within the framework of the Recovery Fund Operational Programme “Implementation Rules for the Investment ‘Support Instrument for the Development of Innovation Clusters’ (5.1.1.2.i.) under Reform 5.1.1.r ‘Innovation Management and Motivation of Private R&D Investments’ of Reform and Investment Direction 5.1.r ‘Increasing Productivity through Higher Investment in R&D’ of Latvia’s Recovery and Resilience Facility Plan”, SIA Mechanical Engineering Competence Centre is implementing Project No. 5.1.1.2.i.0/1/22/A/CFLA/006, “Mechanical Engineering Competence Centre”, from 13 September 2022 to 30 June 2026.

As part of the “Mechanical Engineering Competence Centre” project, Balt Brand Ltd. and Timber Trade Development Ltd. commenced Research Project No. 4.10, “Development of a Prototype of an Automated Heat Recovery (Recuperation) System for Wood Drying Kilns”, on 1 November 2023.

The objective of the research project is to enable effective cooperation between two companies from different industries—Balt Brand Ltd. and Timber Trade Development Ltd.—to investigate ways of reducing the energy required for the timber drying process and improving the efficient use of energy generated during drying. This will be achieved through the development of a prototype of an automated heat recovery (recuperation) system for firewood drying kilns.

As a result of the research project, a prototype of an efficient heat recovery system for timber drying kilns will be developed and validated in a real operating environment (TRL 7). The prototype is intended to ensure efficient, economical use and reuse of energy resources. The project consists exclusively of experimental development activities.

The research project is scheduled for completion by 31 December 2024. The total planned project budget is EUR 329,500.00, of which EUR 197,700.00 is financed by the European Union Recovery Fund.
