| Summary: | The regional energy supply system is powered by high-grade energy, which has problems such as high energy consumption and serious environmental pollution. However, based on the principle of "energy grade matching, and cascade utilization", through utilizing various high, medium and low temperature waste heat recovery technologies, the integrated energy efficiency of the system can be significantly improved, as well as the overall energy consumption and environmental pollution can be reduced, so it is of great concern. Through sorting out the technologies of waste heat recovery in the energy industry of steel, metallurgy and cement, and summarizing the technological progress of low-temperature grade energy waste heat recovery and its application to district heating/cooling systems, the characteristics of various waste heat recovery technologies in the heating/cooling systems were inquired. Finally, the feasibility and economy for application of waste heat recovery technologies in the field of the heating/cooling systems were analyzed with project cases. The results show that by utilizing the waste heat recovery technologies, the integrated energy efficiency of the district heating system can be improved by more than 8%. And the operation cost can be saved by 20% in the district cooling system through combining cold storage technology with waste heat recovery. |
