Abstract

This study focuses on the recovery of industrial waste heat. In natural gas compression facilities, the compression work required for the compressor is supplied by the electrical work generated from the turbine, which operates using the combustion of natural gas. An Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system has been integrated to utilize waste heat. High-temperature ORC systems differ from conventional ORC systems in both the electricity generated and the working fluid used. To utilize the waste heat at a temperature of approximately 530°C, Cyclopentane has been selected as the working fluid in the ORC system. This study presents a practical example of high-temperature waste heat recovery through a case study.
