Organic Rankine Cycles (ORC) are systems that can effectively recover low-grade heat for electric power generation. For ORC to be a viable technology, it should operate safely and efficiently under variable operating conditions due to exogenous and operating specifications changes.

The Rankine cycle is an idealized thermodynamic cycle of a heat engine that converts heat into mechanical work while undergoing phase change. The thermal efficiency equals 1 minus the ratio of the low-to-high pressures to the power of 1 minus the reciprocal of the heat capacity ratio.

Financial analysis shows that the ORC system, including the cost of the unit plus the costs of installation and integration into the process, will cost approximately 4.8 Million USD.

The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) is a thermodynamic process that generates electricity and heat even at lower temperatures: Instead of water, another organic process medium with a low evaporation temperature is used for the steam power process.
