The aim of this project was to reduce the fuel gas consumption of an existing gas refinery. Using pinch technology, it was found that energy savings up to 20% were possible on the process side. The entire plant was modeled in an energy integration tool in ...
The energy integration of industrial processes is becoming increasingly more effective thanks to new methodological developments such as pinch technology. This paper aims at extending the number of factors considered in pinch analysis toward a life-cycle o ...
Exergetic analysis is derived from the First and Second Laws of thermodynamics is shown to be an excellent tool to analyse and characterize industrial processes. A coherent link to pinch technology is shown which allows the designer to extend design consid ...
The internet provides an unprecedented variety of opportunities to people. Whether looking for a place to go on vacation, an apartment to rent, or a PC to buy, the potential customer is faced with countless possibilities. Most people have difficulty findin ...
We consider interactive tools that help users search for their most preferred item in a large collection of options. In particular, we examine example-critiquing, a technique for enabling users to incrementally construct preference models by critiquing exa ...
Compared to other breweries, Brasserie du Cardinal achieves low specific energy consumption without applying “new” technologies like cogeneration or mechanical vapour recompression (MVR). MVR has been advocated for most types of breweries [1]. This case st ...
Thick-film technology has found applications on miniaturised hybrid circuits in various fields (automotive electronics, televisions, ...). This technology is also now widely used for the fabrication of force and pressure sensors that use the piezoresistive ...
