Waste Heat Recovery: An Energy-Efficient and Sustainability Approach in IndustryPages 30-37
Amr Abbass Abstract:
Waste heat recovery (WHR) is a method that improves energy efficiency and sustainability in industries like distillation, gas systems, and power generation. It captures and reuses waste heat from condensers and reboilers, reducing the need for external heating or cooling. Flue gas waste heat recovery (FGWHR) also holds potential for energy conservation. Technologies like Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) and Kalina Cycle (KC) convert low-grade waste into electricity, enhancing overall efficiency. Combined Heat & Power Systems (CHP) achieve efficiency above 80%. However, feasibility studies are crucial before applying WHR technologies in practical applications.
Keywords: Waste heat recovery, Combined heat and power
