Abstract

The invention refers to a system for energy recovery within an arrangement of industrial components. The system comprises a heat source for the arrangement; a thermodynamic circuit processing device, particularly an ORC device, having a heat exchanger for transferring heat from the heat source to a working medium of the thermodynamic circuit processing device and having an expansion device for expanding the working medium and for generating mechanical or electrical power; and at least one component of the arrangement to be driven, particularly at least one hydraulic or pneumatic machine, which can be driven with the power generated. The invention further refers to a corresponding method for energy recovery within an arrangement of industrial components.
