Data acquisition systems (DAS) are the basis for building monitoring tools that enable supervision of local and remote systems. Unfortunately, DASs are commonly based on proprietary technologies. The data format usually depends on the industrial process, t ...
Process integration methods allow one optimizing industrial processes. The main goals are decreasing energy demand and operating costs as well as reduction of pollutants emissions. High fuel costs promote installation of heat pumps. In a heat pump process ...
Concern for the environment has been steadily growing in recent years, and it is becoming more common to include environmental impact and pollution costs in the design problem along with construction, investment and operating costs. To economically respond ...
PINCHLENI is a software for energy integration of industrial processes based on Pinch Analysis. From the streams table which expresses the basic specifications of the analyzed process, the software realizes the sythesis of all energy needs and all heat rec ...
The energy integration of industrial processes is becoming increasingly more effective thanks to new methodological developments such as a pinch tecnology. The original method centers primarly on a consideration of the heat transfer exergy losses represent ...
This report reviews recent developments in ethylbenzene (EB) manufacturing technologies and studies in detail the suggested process; Production of Ethylbenzene via Side Alkylation of Toluene by Methanol. The desired amount of ethylbenzene as the product is ...
The increasing concern for the environmental impact of human activities stimulates the development of new methods for the analysis and design of industrial processes. It is generally admitted that the considerations of environmental and other life cycle fa ...
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 ...
Thermally unstable polymers such as poly(Me methacrylate) are degraded considerably during industrial processing. This degrdn. and its redn. to a min. were investigated in both lab and continuous pilot-scale expts. A three-step degrdn. mechanism, starting ...
