Abstract
Apparatus and methods for recovering energy in a petroleum, petrochemical, or chemical plant as described. The invention relates to a recovered electric power measuring system comprising at least one processor; at least one memory storing computer-executable instructions; and at least one receiver configured to receive data from a sensor on an electrical powerline connected to a generator of a power-recovery turbine, the power-recovery turbine located in a petroleum, petrochemical, or chemical process zone wherein a portion of a first process stream flows through the power-recovery turbine and generates recovered electric power as direct current, the power-recovery turbine electrically connected to a single DC to AC inverter and the output of the DC to AC inverter electrically connected to a first substation.
