Heat integration of an Olefins Plant: Pinch Analysis and mathematical optimization working together
This work explores a two-step, complexity reducing methodology, to analyze heat integration opportunities of an existing Olefins Plant, identify and quantify reduction of energy consumption, and propose changes of the existing heat exchanger network to achieve these goals. Besides the analysis of pl...
