This thesis presents a systematic methodology, based on pinch analysis and process integration techniques, to integrate heat pumps into industrial processes. The main goals are to decrease the energy consumption and the corresponding operating costs, and t ...
This work includes the development of the biomass conversion technologies designed to provide the required heat demand to the district heating network. Biomass is considered here as the only fuel utilized in the proposed conversion systems as the competiti ...
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 ...
This paper presents a methodology aimed at improving the energy efficiency of a brewery applying process integration techniques. The different steps of the analysis are presented. The first step is the identification of the process energy requirements and ...
We report the status of the optics design for a local chromatic correction with extremely flat beams at the LHC. Together with a Large Piwinski angle, this optics opens up the possibility of crab-waist collisions at the LHC, for which a new layout of the L ...
We address the maximization of a project’s expected net present value when the activity durations and cash flows are described by a discrete set of alternative scenarios with associated occurrence probabilities. In this setting, the choice of scenario-inde ...
Integrating energy saving technologies allow the design of more compact industrial processes with improved energy efficiency, better performances and environmental friendliness. The goal of the European project EXSYS II has been to develop a methodology an ...
Process integration methods aim at identifying options for heat recovery and optimal energy conversion in industrial processes. For the heat cascade, it is assumed that any heat exchange between cold and hot streams is possible, but due to industrial const ...
This report present the heating and cooling system integration applied in the GLN area, based on a proposed district cooling/heating network design methodology. The cooling load is provided by a mix of direct cooling and refrigeration. To improve the total ...
Modern social media systems are geared to serving weak ties: informal collections of individuals acting in relative isolation. But what about strong ties: the family and friends who form life's inner circle? More and more people are living apart. Can techn ...
