Development and Perspective of Waste Heat Recovery Technology

Abstract

Rapid industrial development and evaluation has triggered enormous energy and environmental issues, of which the fast depletion of energy has been one of society’s main concerns. The scarcity of energy is one of the most important environmental issues that international bodies urge to tackle. Scientists coming from different academic groups collaborate to find out high-efficient, low-emission manufacturing devices to deal with the scarcity. People have been already familiar with some methods that people used to take nonrenewable resources, coil, oil, and so forth, in place of solar energy. In this paper, another novel perspective that increases the quantity of usable energy after the industrial process finishing will be introduced, the waste heat energy. As a promising but little-exploited technology, I will briefly cite the present stage of investigation and evaluation. Hopefully, this paper can spark any interest or idea the researchers have to engage in improving the waste of heat energy.
