在英国，25%的最终能源消耗归因于工业部门（DECC，2013），工业部门也占电力消耗的三分之一。然而，据估计，20%至50%的工业能量消耗最终作为热量浪费（约翰逊等人，2008年）。与清晰可见的材料浪费不同，废热在数量和质量方面都难以识别和评估。因此，通过了解废热的可用性以及回收废热的能力，有机会降低能源成本和相关的环境影响。这项研究描述了一个新框架的设计，该框架有助于制造商就最合适的解决方案做出决策，以从他们的活动中回收废热能（WHE）。该框架包括四个主要部分：1）在设施中的余热源的调查; 2）余热的量和质量的评估; 3）选择合适的技术; 4）决策和建议。为了支持该框架在制造业的实施，相关的软件工具进行了讨论。
In the UK, 25% of final energy consumption is attributed to the industrial sector (DECC, 2013) which also accounts for one third of the electricity consumption. However it is estimated that between 20 to 50 percent of industrial energy consumption is ultimately wasted as heat (Johnson et al., 2008). Unlike material waste that is clearly visible, waste heat can be difficult to identify and evaluate both in terms of quantity and quality. Hence by being able to understand the availability of waste heat, and the ability to recover it, there is an opportunity to reduce energy costs and associated environmental impacts. This research describes the design of a novel framework that aids manufacturers in making decisions regarding the most suitable solution to recover Waste Heat Energy (WHE) from their activities. The framework consists of four major sections: 1) survey of waste heat sources in a facility; 2) assessment of waste heat quantity and quality; 3) selection of appropriate technology; 4) decision making and recommendations. In order to support the implementation of the framework within the manufacturing industry, an associated software tool is discussed.
