Pinch Analysis and Process IntegrationA User Guide on Process Integration for the Efficient Use of Energy\nAuthor(s): Ian C. Kemp\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780750682602, 978-0750682602\nSynopsis\nPinch analysis and related techniques are the key to design of inherently energy-efficient plants. This book shows engineers how to understand and optimize energy use in their processes, whether large or small. Energy savings go straight to the bottom line as increased profit, as well as reducing emissions. This is the key guide to process integration for both experienced and newly qualified engineers, as well as academics and students. It begins with an introduction to the main concepts of pinch analysis, the calculation of energy targets for a given process, the pinch temperature and the golden rules of pinch-based design to meet energy targets. The book shows how to extract the stream da.
