Optimization of Organic Rankine Cycles for Waste Heat Recovery From Aluminum Production Plants

Optimization of Organic Rankine Cycles for Waste Heat Recovery From Aluminum Production Plants

This paper presents the optimization of organic Rankine cycles (ORCs) for recovering waste heat from a hypothetical aluminum production plant to be installed in Norway. The case study is particularly interesting because it features two hot streams at different temperatures (the pot exhaust gases and...
