Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010142893A1] The invention relates to a system (22) for recovering the energy released by at least one electrolysis tank (2), wherein the recovery system comprises a first heat exchange loop (28) through which a coolant flows, the first loop (26) including: a heat exchanger (36) through which the coolant flows; and a recovery unit (38) capable of recovering the heat of the coolant having passed through the heat exchanger (36); a primary collecting circuit (24) capable of collecting at least a portion of the fumes and gases generated by the electrolysis tank (2), the heat exchanger (36) being arranged outside and spaced apart from the electrolysis tank (2); wherein the fumes and gases collected by the primary circuit (24) pass through the heat exchanger (36) for heating the coolant.
