Description: Here is the most complete reference ever developed for identifying quantity and quality of industrial waste energy which may be economically practical to recover. Based on years of research, the detailed heat and material balances which are presented were developed from process flow diagrams of 108 industrial processes, with technical input from consultants and manufacturers, and extensive on-site verification studies.

Data such as process temperature, pressure, fuel requirements, thermal efficiency and radiation, and convection losses are determined for varying industrial operations spanning the food products, textile, lumber and wood, paper, chemical, petroleum, rubber and plastics, glass, metals, machinery, transportation equipment, and instrument manufacturing industries.
