Method for recovering energy from vapour or steam to be blown off

摘要

A method is described for recovering energy from vapour or steam (5) to be blown off from a condensate collecting vessel (1). The aim is to intercept and recover the energy and water content of the vapour or steam superfluous at overpressure in the collecting vessel. According to the invention, the vapour (5) is fed via a discharge flue (6) provided above the condensate (3) on the collecting vessel (1) to a heat exchanger line (9,11,12) that is open only towards the collecting vessel. <IMAGE>
