Utilization of waste heat generated from thermal power plants

The present paper describes the main features of waste heat recovery. Waste heat is heat, which is generated in a process by way of fuel combustion or chemical reaction, and then “dumped” into the environment even though it could still be reused for some useful and economic purpose. The energy lost...

description The present paper describes the main features of waste heat recovery. Waste heat is heat, which is generated in a process by way of fuel combustion or chemical reaction, and then “dumped” into the environment even though it could still be reused for some useful and economic purpose. The energy lost in waste gases cannot be fully recovered. However, much of the heat could be recovered and loss minimized by adopting various measures as outlined in this paper.
