1. A method for performing a process comprising:
at least one heat-consuming process step, wherein a first fluid, which arises in the process and contains acid gases and water vapor, is cooled indirectly against a second fluid thus forming an acidic condensate,
wherein the indirect cooling of the first fluid is performed in at least two successive steps, between which heat for use in the at least one heat-consuming process step is indirectly withdrawn from the second fluid.
