Energy is extracted from hot dust-laden gases by a process in which the hot gases, before being cooled or purified, are used to generate steam in a boiler. The solid particles are then removed from the gases which are then supplied to a turbine.

Process for extracting energy and removing solid particles from hot, dust-laden gases (3) emitted from a plant (1) simultaneously supplied with combustion air (2) under pressure characterized by the fact that (a) the hot gases (3) before being cooled or treated with water are supplied to a steam boiler (4) wherein thermal energy is extracted, (b) the solid particles are then removed in a dry manner from the cooled gases still under pressure, and (c) the solids-free and cooled gases are then fed to an expansion turbine (17) wherein mechanical energy is extracted, the supply of combustion air (2) to the plant (1) being provided by a compressor (21) driven by said expansion turbine (17), the whole being arranged so that the unit formed by the turbine and the compressor has a shortfall of energy and that the make-up is supplied by a steam turbine (23) whose inlet is regulated according to the flow (25) of the combustion air supplied.
