L A N D Y H Y D R O P O W E R S C R E W SGENERATION OF RENEWABLEENERGYDue to the global warming and the increase ofboth global power consumption and oil prices,generation of renewable and environmentalenergy is being promoted and subsidizedworldwide. There are many forms of harvestingeco friendly and renewable sources, with hydropowerbeing its most mature and largest sourceof renewable power. The power plants simplyconvert the energy from flowing water intoelectricity, in most cases using a dam/weir on ariver to retain a large reservoir of water. Thiswater is than released trough turbines in order togenerate electricity.Hydropower plants produce no air emissions butin most cases affect the water quality, wildlifehabitats and especially prevent the fishmigration.However the highly efficient Archimedean screwhas been “re-invented” to generate electricity allyear round at 24 hours per day, whilst obtainingthe natural flow of the river, in combination withits natural fish friendliness and a small fish trap itis one of the few systems that is able to maintainor even improve the wildlife in and around theriver.APPLICATIONSGeneral Rule of Thumb Calculation ofelectrical power output is:H(m) x Q(m 3 /s) x g(9,81m/s 2 ) x 0.75 = P (kW)Energy production per year:P (kW) x 8760 (hr) = (kWh/y)The LANDY hydropower screw is profitable source ofincome and entirely environmental friendly, once youpossess the water rights of a flow.The LANDY hydropower screw can be used in placesor areas where there is a low head ≤ 10 meter and aflow of ≤ 15m 3 /s.Examples are:RiversIn an existing spillway, lock or in a weir systemTo replace existing waterwheels or other types ofgenerators(Waste) Water treatment inlets / outletsCooling water outlets of power stationsIndustrial process water (i.e. Paper industries or steelmills)Anywhere where water is available at a higher level
LANDUSTRIE SNEEK BVOverview of the parts of aHydropower screw :1. Hydropower screw2. Obstacle Free Outlet3. Drive unit4. Generator5. Trough6. Sluice gate7. Coarse screen8. Control panel9. Inlet channel10. By washFor nearly a century Landustrie has designed, manufactured,supplied, erected and maintained many types ofscrew pump configurations. Since the early eightiesLandustrie has developed a fully automated selectionprogram in order to select the optimum screw for aparticular application. This program is based on a largenumber of tests, with a large number of variables, in theLandustrie test facility.In addition, Landustrie has developed specific pumpknowledge and experience, which is continuouslyupdated by means of R&D and the latest technologiesand is the only manufacturer of screws using FiniteElement Analysis methods.The newest range of the Landustrie products coversthe worldwide hydropower market. Creating renewableenergy with a reliable, fish friendly and durablehydropower screw.The Archimedean screw pump was introduced to be ahigh efficient pump. Due to the low turning speed, thelife time of the screw can be expected to be at least30 years and barely needs maintenance nor cleaning.The hydropower screw turns the principle of pumpingaround, maintaining the advantages and generatingenergy using the falling water to drive the screw.All this knowledge and experience makes Landustrie asone of the leading manufacturers in the world of screwpumps and hydropower screws. Together with AquaHelica GmbH, for the initial planning, engineering andadditional knowhow, we operate on the worldwideimplementation of hydroelectric power plants. Thiscollaboration brings together a large amount of specificknowledge and experience in the field of hydropowerscrews.Therefore we offer you in cooperation with Aqua HelicaGmbH and our local partners the complete package fromfeasibility study until the commissioning of yourhydropower screw, consisting of the following possibilities:Guidance: Study and Feasibility, Selection of technology,DesignPlanning: Approval process, Construction, Mechanicaland Electrical engineering planningRealisation:Construction supervision, Procurement andCommissioningOperation: System monitoring, Maintenance and Serviceand complete operational management
