What are some of the uses for excess LP steam at 3.5 bar , 175 deg. C in a refinery complex? Is it practical to use a LP steam turbine for power recovery?

If there is excess LP steam you should look at ways to eliminate the excess, not ways to use it.

go-fish,

 

It might be practical; but as bobby mentioned it's better elimination of excess steam production...
