Chemical Engineering: Volume 6: Coulson Richardsons

The off-gases (vent gas) from reactors, and recycle stream purges are often of high enough
calorific value to be used as fuels.
The calorific value of a gas can be calculated from the heats of combustion of its
constituents; the method is illustrated in Example 3.14.
Other factors which, together with the calorific value, will determine the economic
value of an off-gas as a fuel are the quantity available and the continuity of supply.
Waste gases are best used for steam raising, rather than for direct process heating, as this
decouples the source from the use and gives greater flexibility
