Utilizing data center waste heat in district heating – Impacts on energy efficiency and prospects for low-temperature district heating networks

A System Perspective on District Heating and Waste Incineration

Energy recovery by waste incineration has a double function as waste treatment method and supplier of electricity and/or heat, thereby linking the systems of energy and waste management. Both systems are undergoing great changes, mainly due to new regulations. Important regulations within waste management in Sweden are a ban on landfill of combustible waste and organic waste, and a tax on landf...

District Heating Networks Calculation and Optimization

The first step in studying the behavior of a pipe network is to identify the objectives that must be attained and the physical and logical problems that must be solved; this aim can be achieved by building a suitable model of the network. The next step must be the operation of the model (which, for example, in the case of numerical models consists of using an appropriate algorithmic procedure) ...

District Heating in Buildings

This paper is published by Euroheat & Power. Our aim is to inform about district heating and cooling as efficient and environmentally benign energy solutions that make use of resources that otherwise would be wasted, delivering reliable and comfortable heating and cooling in return.
