Abstract (en)

[origin: DE102007046854B3] The method involves providing several energy storages at different temperature levels. Energy stored in water is supplied with steam and a treatment chamber is heated with steam in a lowering phase. Rising and lowering phases assigned to the respective energy storages are selected such that equilibrium is developed between energy extraction and energy recovery, and the energy storage is oscillated to an energy area, which lies between the temperature pressure level of associated sections of the increasing phase and the lowering phase.
