Abstract (en)

The installation (10), comprises- an electrochemical unit (12) configured to carry out a high temperature electrochemical reaction, the unit (12) having a purified steam inlet (40), and at least a product outlet (44; 46); and- a purified steam production unit (14), directly connected to the steam inlet (40), the purified steam production unit (14) comprising a first inlet (80) receiving a heating stream (60) from an industrial latent heat source (16), and a second inlet (82) receiving raw water (72) from a source (70) of raw water.The purified steam production unit (14) comprises a heat exchange zone (76), configured to place the raw water (72) in heat exchange with the heating stream (60) and to evaporate the raw water (72) to produce the purified steam (24), at a purified steam outlet (84) connected to the purified steam inlet (40) without passing through a steam condensing unit.
