Title: Computational Approach to large Scale Process Optimization Authors: Nasser Al-Azri, Mahmoud Al-Kindi. Abstract: Since its debut in the last quarter of the twentieth century, pinch technology has become an efficient tool for efficient and cost-effective engineering process design. This method allows the integration of mass and heat streams in such a way that minimizes waste and external purchase of mass and utilities. Moreover, integrating process streams internally will minimize fuel consumption and hence carbon emission to the atmosphere. This paper discusses a programmable approach to the design of mass and heat exchange networks that can be used easily for large scale engineering processes. Keywords – Pinch Technology, Engineering Process, Process Integration. |
