Waste Heat and Wastewater Recovery in Textile Processing Industry: A Case Study of Adopted Practices
Mehran University Research Journal of Engineering and Technology, 2021 Textile wet processes dispose of huge amounts of water and energy in the form of hot wastewater and exhaust gas emissions. A significant amount of water and energy can be conserved by adopting various waste heat and water recovery methods, such as the ...

Toward Sustainability of the Aqueous Phase Reforming of Wastewater: Heat Recovery and Integration
Applied Sciences, 2022 Aqueous-phase reforming has been revealed as a novel, interesting and efficient process for the treatment of wastewater containing organic pollutants. However, due to the relatively severe operating conditions (above 15 bar and 200 °C), this process could become economically competitive if any solution for energy or material valorization is implemented.

Advanced solutions to improve heat recovery from wastewater in a double heat exchanger
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023 Abstract Reducing energy consumption and CO2 footprint in existing buildings without requiring extensive construction work is one of the biggest challenges facing the globe today. Although heating contributes for the majority of energy use in buildings, residential hot water demand is also relatively high, particularly when daily usage ...

Source-separated wastewater – enabling higher energy recovery
Energy NexusThis study quantifies the impact of source-separation in heat recovery by comparing greywater in source-separated wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) versus mixed wastewater in conventional WWTPs as a heat source using an idealized Lorenz heat pump model.

Investigating the interactions of decentralized and centralized wastewater heat recovery systems
Water Science and Technology, 2016 In the urban water cycle there are different sources for extracting energy. In addition to potential and chemical energy in the wastewater, thermal energy can also be recovered. Heat can be recovered from the wastewater with heat exchangers that are located decentralized and/or centralized at several locations throughout the system. It can be recovered
