Steam-based heat pumps

Steam-based heat pumps are active heat-recovery equipment that allows the temperature of a waste-heat steam to be increased to a higher, more useful temperature. Such heat pumps can consequently facilitate energy savings when conventional passive-heat recovery is not possible.
