Waste Heat Reduction and Recovery

Course No. M-1018

Credit: 1 PDH

Course Fee: $28.95 Purchase course

Subject Matter Expert: Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR

 

Overview

Thermal efficiency of process heating equipment, such as furnaces, ovens, melters, heaters, and kilns is the ratio of heat delivered to a material and heat supplied to the heating equipment. For most heating equipment, a large amount of the heat supplied is wasted in the form of exhaust or flue gases. These losses depend on various factors associated with the design and operation of the heating equipment. This course will help engineers and plant operators to reduce waste heat losses associated with the heating equipment.

In this course the student will learn some of the basic waste heat reduction and recovery opportunities for improving furnace efficiency, productivity and emissions performance.

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in A Best Practices Process Heating Technical Brief - Waste Heat Reduction and Recovery for Improving Furnace Efficiency, Productivity and Emissions Performance DOE/GO-102004-1975 November 2004

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.

 

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Heat losses from fuel-fired heating equipment
  • What determines waste-gas losses
  • Steps for increasing energy efficiency through reduction in exhaust gas heat losses
  • Waste heat recover
  • Energy reduction and recovery strategy
  • Improving the performance of existing equipment
  • Modifying and upgrading equipment
