Project Title
Cement Plant Waste Heat Recovery - ID Fan EE Project
Project Number ET16SCE1030 Organization SCE End-use Process Loads Sector Industrial Project Year(s) 2015 - 2017Description
The cement plants produce significant amount of high grade (> 1,000 deg. F) waste heat as part of cement making process. This waste heat can be captured to produce electric or mechanical power to permanently offset plant electric energy/demand with the application of certain technologies/systems. The proposed design concept is such a system and is based on the application of well established (however, un-utilized in the U.S.) waste heat recovery mechanical cogeneration concept to cement plant processes.
