though it could still be reused for some useful and economic purpose. • The essential quality of heat is not the amount but rather its “value”. • The strategy of how to recover this heat depends in part on the temperature of the waste heat gases and the economics involved. • Large quantity of hot flue gases is generated from Boilers, Kilns, Ovens and Furnaces. • If some of this waste heat could be recovered, a considerable amount of primary fuel could be saved. 2.2 Classification and Application: In considering the potential for heat recovery, it is useful to note all the possibilities, and grade the waste heat in terms of potential value as shown in the following Table. 2.2.1 High Temperature Heat Recovery The Table 1 gives temperature ranges of waste gases from industrial process equipment in the high temperature range. All of these results from direct fuel fired processes. Table 1- typical waste heat temperatures at high temperature range from various sources Table 3 lists some heat sources in the low temperature range. In this range it is usually not practical to extract work from the source, though steam production may not be completely excluded if there is a need for low- pressure steam. Low temperature waste heat may be useful in a supplementary way for preheating purposes. 2.3 Benefits of Waste Heat Recovery Benefits of ‘waste heat recovery’ can be broadly classified in two categories: 2.3.1 Direct Benefits: Recovery of waste heat has a direct effect on the efficiency of the process. This is reflected by reduction in the utility consumption & costs, and process cost. 2.3.2 Indirect Benefits • Reduction in pollution: A number of toxic combustible wastes such as carbon monoxide gas, sour gas, carbon black off gases, oil sludge, acrylonitrile and other plastic chemicals etc, releasing to atmosphere if/when burnt in the incinerators serves dual purpose i.e. recovers heat and reduces the environmental pollution levels. • Reduction in equipment sizes: Waste heat recovery reduces the fuel consumption, which leads to reduction in the flue gas produced. This results in reduction in equipment sizes of all flue gas handling equipments such as fans, stacks, ducts, burners, etc. • Reduction in auxiliary energy consumption: Reduction in equipment sizes gives additional benefits in the form of reduction in auxiliary energy consumption like electricity for fans, pumps etc. 2.4 Development of Waste Heat Recovery System Understanding the process is essential for development of Waste Heat Recovery system. This can be accomplished by reviewing the process flow sheets, layout diagrams, piping isometrics, electrical and instrumentation cable ducting etc. Detail review of these documents will help in identifying; 1) Sources and uses of waste heat 2) Upset conditions occurring in the plant due to heat recovery 3) Availability of space, 4) any other constraint, such as dew point occurring in an equipments etc. After identifying source of waste heat and the possible use of it, the next step is to select suitable heat recovery system and equipments to recover and utilize the same. 2.4.1 Economic Evaluation of Waste Heat Recovery System It is necessary to evaluate the selected waste heat recovery system on the basis of financial analysis such as investment, depreciation, payback period, rate of return etc. In addition the advice of experienced consultants and suppliers must be obtained for rational decision .Types of waste heat recovery systems are; 1) Recuperators, 2) regenerator, 3) heat wheels, 4) heat pipe. Types of Device Nickel refining furnace Aluminium refining furnace Zinc refining furnace Open hearth furnace Cement kiln (Dry process) Glass melting furnace Solid waste incinerators Fume incinerators Temperature, °C 1370 –1650 650-760 760-1100 650-700 620- 730 1000-1550 650-1000 650-1450 International Journal of Advanced Engineering Technology E-ISSN 0976-3945 2.2.2 Medium Temperature Heat Recovery Table 2 gives the temperature ranges of waste gases from process equipment in the medium temperature range. Most of the waste heat in this temperature range comes from the exhaust of directly fired process units.
