Waste heat recovery and reuse in foundation industries (WHR-FIND)

水泥、钢铁、玻璃等行业属于能源密集型行业，约有1/3的输入燃料能源作为废热被丢弃。尽管如此，从这些工业中回收余热已经有了一些发展。但是，由于缺乏对余热发电技术的障碍和挑战的认识和理解，它们对初级过程的影响，以及与余热发电技术相关的成本和效益。在这个项目中，我们的目标是调查和描述主要障碍和挑战，开发工具和模型来分析废热潜力，进行技术经济可行性评估，通过专门的商业模型分析废热发电技术的成本效益。该项目将与废热发电技术、能源效率和商业模式研究领域的领先研究人员密切合作完成。

The cement, steel, and glass industry are energy intense industries, and about 1/3 of the input fuel energy is discarded as waste heat. Although, there has been development to recover the waste heat from these industries. But, due to lack of knowledge and understanding of the barrier and challenges of waste heat to power conversion technologies, their impact on the primary process, and the cost and benefits associated with the waste heat to power conversion technologies. In this project, we aim to investigate and characterize the major barrier and challenges, develop the tools and model to analyse the waste heat potential, conduct the techno economic feasibility assessment, analyse the cost-benefit of the waste heat to power conversion technologies through dedicated business models. The project will be completed in close collaboration with leading researchers in the area of waste heat to power conversion technologies, energy efficiency, and business model research.
