Abstract:
A steam reboiler unit that includes turbines for reducing the pressure of various streams associated with the reboilers. The turbines generate electricity from the pressure reduction which can be recovered and utilized elsewhere in the processing unit. Data from the turbine associated with the amount of electrical power generated by the turbine is used to adjust other processing conditions to provide for a more efficient operation of the processing unit.

Claim (Index 11):
A process for recovering electrical power from a steam reboiler with a turbine, the process comprising:\n passing a liquid process stream to a reboiler; passing a stream of steam into a heat exchanger disposed within the reboiler; heating the liquid process stream in the reboiler with the stream of steam; recovering a stream of condensate from the heat exchanger; recovering a mixed stream from the reboiler, the mixed stream comprising the liquid process stream and a vapor portion of the liquid process stream; controlling the flow or pressure of the stream of steam with at least one turbine, the at least one turbine being disposed in a condensate recovery line, in a steam supply line, or both; and, generating electricity with the at least one turbine.
