For many businesses, the most economical way of saving energy is to make use of the heat that industrial processes generate. No question that a lot of this heat gets wasted. Three years ago, researchers at UC Berkeley estimated the US consumes 100 quadrillion Btus of energy annually and as much as 60% of that energy gets dissipated as waste heat. As you might expect, one key is the ability to differentiate between low-grade heat and useful amounts of thermal energy. Advice comes from Tim Golden, director of aftermarket services at Megtec Systems Inc, De Pere, WI. Megtec, among other things, makes heat-recovery systems that use heated air from process dryers, ovens, and air-pollution control systems. Some heat-recovery situations may also call for a special kind of heat exchanger called a desuperheater. These devices get their name from the fact that compression often raises the refrigerant-gas temperature to a level higher than the saturation temperature in the condenser.
