One of promising technologies of utilizing low- temperature waste heat is through ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) system implementation. A primary objective in designing in-stallations based on such systems is to maximize the installation's work efficiency. On the other hand, ecological factors are commonly considered a natural barrier in introducing new, often very expensive technologies. Ecological effect of a potential modernization is, in this case, very frequently underestimated. The following paper shows a global approach into the problem of achieving maximum efficiency of ORC system, taking into consideration the ther-modynamic efficiency, ecological impact of the working fluid on the environment and criteria of choosing the appropriate fluid, based on its work conditions.
