Thermo-economic investigation and optimization of parallel double-evaporator organic Rankine & Kalina cycles driven by the waste heat of an industrial roller kiln: A comparative study

The roller kiln is characterized by significant heat losses mainly caused by flue gas and cooling gas accounting for 70%. In this study, four novel power cycles including a basic organic Rankine cycle (BORC), a regenerative organic Rankine cycle (RORC), a Kalina cycle11 (KC11) and a Kalina cycle 34...
