| Popis: | A case of study of a theoretical heat recovery analysis is made in an industrial furnace that consumes natural gas to determine the absorption cooling capacity (LiBr - Water) that can be generated for air conditioning, and the calefaction capacity that can be supplied using a heat exchanger to heat water, the energy source will be the heat of the flue gas that is eliminated by the stack of the furnace. This article shows that it is possible and feasible to get an energetic integration and energy savings in the industry. Thermodynamics and economics analysis of all of the equipment (heat recovery exchanger, absorption chiller, cooling tower, etc.) is conducted. The procedures to evaluate the heat recovery potential of industrial equipment will be shown, as well as the limitations that must be considered. The presented results highlight the importance of energy analysis along with the economic part. This methodology also considers the favorable environmental impact that is available to perform this kind of projects. All above mentioned will determine the profitability and feasibility of the project. |
