Waste heat is heat that is produced by a machine, or other process that uses energy, as a byproduct of doing work. All such processes give off some waste heat as a fundamental result of the laws of thermodynamics. Waste heat has lower utility (or in thermodynamics lexicon a lower exergy or higher entropy) than the original energy source. Sources of waste heat include all manner of human activities, natural systems, and all organisms, for example, incandescent light bulbs get hot, a refrigerator warms the room air, an internal combustion engine generates high-temperature exhaust gases, and electronic components get warm when in operation.

The invention belongs to the technical field of power station boiler waste heat recycling energy-saving equipment and relates to a plate-and-shell type coal economizer. The plate-and-shell type coal economizer comprises a corrugated plate heat exchange core body (1), a heat exchanger shell (2), a first and a second water inlet / outlet water tank (3, 3') and a first and a second exhaust gas inlet / outlet pipeline (4, 4'), wherein the corrugated plate heat exchange core body (1) is mounted in the heat exchanger shell (2), the first and second water inlet / outlet water tanks (3, 3') are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side of the corrugated plate heat exchange core body (1), and the first and second exhaust gas inlet / outlet pipelines (4, 4') are respectively arranged at the upper and lower sides of the corrugated plate heat exchange core body (1). The plate-and-shell type coal economizer solves the problem that the length of a water passage needs to be increased to solve the problem of unapparent water heating due to the great difference between an exhaust gas density and a water density, and meanwhile, a corrugated passage at the exhaust gas side enables the exhaust gas flow turbulivity to be increased and the heat transfer efficiency to be improved; the blockage due to ash accumulation happens rarely, even if the ash is accumulated, the cleaning is easy to finish.
