Selection, operation and control of a work exchanger energy recovery system based on the Singapore project

Besides the main advantage of the inherently higher efficiency of a work exchanger energy recovery device there are other operational advantages compared to other energy recovery devices such as the Pelton turbine, pressure exchangers and so-called turbochargers. In order to illustrate such differences the paper explains how to operate and control a plant with a work exchanger based on the example of the Singapore project.
