A novel industrial waste heat recovery system for pollutant removal, water production and cooling

该项目旨在优化和构建一个由工业废热驱动的原型，适用于可持续冷却，水生产和污染物去除。通过利用创新的湿气流系统（MAS），该系统将利用任何工业燃煤/生物质锅炉释放的低品位废热（80°C或以上）。利用的低品位能源将用于驱动“喷射冷却系统”并产生清洁水。此外，通过使用新型光催化MOP，可以有效地去除工业污染物（CO2，SOx，NOx，POx），并将清洁的空气释放到大气中。从经济上讲，拟议的项目将有助于提高能源效率，并为大多数现有的工业流程提供更负担得起的能源系统。此外，还将通过改善空气质量和改善英国和全球公民的生活条件来影响环境。

The project aims to optimise and construct a prototype driven by industrial waste heat, suitable for sustainable cooling, water production and pollutant removal. Through the utilisation of an innovative moist airflow system (MAS), the proposed system will harness low grade waste heat (80°C or over) released from any industrial coal/biomass fired boiler. The harnessed low grade energy will be used to drive an “ejector cooling system” and generate clean water. Moreover, by making use of a novel photocatalytic MOP, the industrial pollutants (CO2, SOx, NOx, POx) can be removed effectively and the clean air will be released into the atmosphere. Economically, the proposed project will help to improve energy efficiency and offer a more affordable energy system to most existing industrial processes. In addition there will be environmental impact through, improved air quality and better living conditons for UK and global citizens.
