MUMBAI, India, Sept. 28 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202642113740 A) filed by Triveni Turbine Limited; and Indian Institute Of Science on September 23, 2026, for Compact Heat Engines For Waste Heat Recovery.
Inventors include Lakshminarayanan Seshadri; Jayesh Gupta; Pramod Kumar; and Bhaskar Thirthapura Ramaswamy.
The application for the patent was published on September 25, 2026, under issue no. 39/2026.
Abstract: An energy recovery system is described. The energy recovery system includes a heat exchanger that converts a partially heated fluid to a high temperature fluid, while generating a partially cooled waste heat stream. A fluid expander expands the high temperature fluid into an expanded fluid. A multi-stream heat exchanger transfers heat from the expanded fluid and the partially cooled waste heat stream to a second high pressure low temperature fluid to generate the partially heated fluid, while cooling the expanded fluid to a partially cooled fluid. A second multi-stream heat exchanger transfers heat from the partially cooled fluid to generate a first cooled fluid. A first pressure building system pressurizes the first cooled fluid to generate a first pressurized fluid, while the first pressurized fluid is further cooled in the second multi-stream heat exchanger to generate a second cooled fluid. A second pressure building system pressurizes the second cooled fluid to generate the second high pressure low temperature fluid. A method of operating the energy recovery system is also described.
