..., which has 80:20 fly and bottom ash share, considering coal with 40% ash content. This study aims to harness the waste heat of fly ash collected at the bottom of the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) by coupling organic Rankine cycle (ORC) with 210 MW subcritical coal-fired thermal power plant works...

...Srinath Somu; Deanna Lacoste; Saumitra Saxena; William L. Roberts; Robert M. Keolian Waste heat recovery from power plants and industries requires a new type of electricity generator and related technological developments. The current research work is aimed at the design of a multi-kilowatt...

...Ahmad K. Sleiti; Wahib A. Al-Ammari; Mohammed Al-Khawaja Refrigerants of the conventional cooling systems contribute to global warming and ozone depletion significantly, therefore it is necessary to develop new cooling systems that use renewable energy resources and waste heat to perform...

...-looping combustion is proposed. In the reduction reactor, DME is oxidized by Fe 2 O 3 into CO 2 and H 2 O , and Fe 2 O 3 is reduced into FeO simultaneously. Since the endothermic reduction in Fe 2 O 3 with DME requires relatively low-grade thermal energy around 180 ° C , waste heat is used to provide...

...A. Khaliq; R. Kumar; I. Dincer In this paper, a novel industrial waste heat recovery based cogeneration is proposed for the combined production of power and refrigeration. The system is an integration of Rankine power cycle and absorption refrigeration cycle. A thermodynamic analysis through energy...

.... The secondary federal database to construct the energy end-use models is the Energy Information Administration’s “EIA-860B: Annual Electric Generator Report.” This database provides information about fuel consumed, gross generation, and recovered waste heat at the prime mover level of detail. The results...

... a diffusion tower. Liquid water is condensed out of the air/vapor mixture in a direct contact condenser. The desalination process is suitable for operation at low temperatures and may be driven by waste heat with low exergy. It is demonstrated that the DDD process can yield a fresh water production efficiency...
