This invention relates to the field of
energy recovery and reuse technology, and in particular to a
waste heat recovery system for a
deaerator in a cigarette factory's gas-fired boiler. The
system includes a steam heat exchange loop, a
bathing water heat exchange loop, and a
softened water heat exchange loop. The steam heat exchange loop is sequentially equipped with a
deaerator, a second valve, a first
heat exchanger, a third valve, a second
heat exchanger, a fifth valve, and a return water tank. The
bathing water heat exchange loop and the
softened water heat exchange loop form closed loops with the cold sides of the first and second heat exchangers, respectively. The
system can also be supplemented with a first valve and a fourth valve, allowing for switching between series and parallel operation
modes of the heat exchangers through valve on / off coordination. This invention employs a two-stage heat exchange and
cascade utilization process. The series mode adapts to normal steam operating conditions to achieve deep
waste heat recovery, while the parallel mode adapts to high steam load conditions to achieve
heat load diversion. This enables zero secondary steam
discharge from the
deaerator, achieving dual
recovery of
heat energy and
water resources.
