Bitcoin Miner Heating: Evaluating Cost Efficiency and Practical Application

BTC Research Paper Submission (1).pdf (308.4 KB)

Last year with the help of @SoftwarmLLC I was able to collect data from one of their heating projects and test 2 separate systems in the process. In this paper I go into how the system functions and how profitable it was at the point in time I took down the information. If anyone has time to read through it constructive feedback is greatly appreciated.

Nice job, do you know if all concrete plants use heated water? It sounds like they are using it year round which seems strange.

Most plants that I know of tend to. It is typically used for cleaning the trucks and equipment as warm water (~100F) makes scraping off caked on material a bit easier. It is also used in colder parts of the year for mixing the concrete.
