Steam turbines are used in the pharmaceutical industries in which electricity and heat drive many processes and it is often economical to integrate steam turbines into processes to produce electricity that can be used to power the facility. Steam turbines are similarly used to produce energy from waste. When waste material is combusted, the heat is used to drive an efficient and customized steam turbine.

Steam Turbines use the potential energy of steam and transform it into kinetic and mechanical energy. High-pressure steam is fed into a turbine that spins a generator producing electricity.

Steam is commonly used in the Pharma Industry for process heating, cleaning, and sterilization, humidification, distillation among other applications. Steam Turbines are effectively integrated to generate power using the pressure difference between the Boiler Pressure and the Process Pressure. Turtle Turbines has supplied several turbines to Pharma Industries even with varying steam flows.
