Abstract: Energy intensive industries face strong challenges due to rising electricity costs and environmental limitations, therefore, developing methods for energy efficiency improvement is becoming an increasingly important issue. With an estimated 30% of industrial energy input being lost as waste heat, its recovery represents an interesting energy efficiency solution potentially providing for a zero-emission, low cost and abundant resource.
