Abstract
Systems for cooling a steelmaking plant can include a heat recovery unit with a gas inlet receiving flue gases from production processes of the steelmaking plant. A wastewater treatment unit has an inlet receiving waste water from the production processes of the steelmaking plant and a clean water outlet hydraulically connected to a cooling water inlet of the heat recovery unit. An absorption cooling unit has an inlet hydraulically connected to a hot water discharge of the heat recovery unit.
