Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) And Utilisation

Waste heat involves industrial procedure waste steam, thermal power plant refuse heat, and heat from burning of crop remainders, agricultural waste, animal dung, and so on. The properties of the different kinds of waste heat and recovery techniques are quite dissimilar.  

Around two-thirds of industrial energy are employed as process steam and heat, and are in the type of thermal energy, instead of in the type of power. Consequently, the opportunities for WHR are in abundant. Though, in establishing the opportunities, process energy necessities and waste streams require to be computed; the accessible methodologies of recovery and their costs, and the resultant energy savings, establish the economic viability of recognizing the waste heat potential.
