ABSTRACT:
Pollutants are removed from a hot industrial effluent after which enthalpy is recovered from the hot effluent by converting a working fluid into a foam in a flashing unit and using the foam to propel a turbine. For liquid effluents the effluent itself serves as the working fluid. For gaseous effluents the scrubbing fluid used to remove pollutants is used as the working fluid.
