AB - This paper proposes a novel technology for waste heat recovery from a  coal-fired curing barn flue gas, which can reduce simultaneously the flue  gas pollutants. The upper and lower shed tobacco leaves are used as the  research object during the curing of tobacco leaves in the rural curing  tobacco house. The temperature and the humidity are monitored during the  curing process, the change in the appearance of the tobacco leaves is  observed. The desulfurization and denitration system can improve the  uniformity of the overall tobacco leaves temperature and humidity, and can  realize the integration of waste heat recovery of coal-fired boilers and  flue gas pollutants treatment. An experiment is carried out and the results  show that the technology can save energy to the greatest extent while  ensuring the quality of tobacco leaves.
