A Hybrid Meta-Heuristic Approach for Multi-Objective Optimization of Heat Exchanger Networks considering Costs and Environmental Impacts

Heat Exchanger Networks (HEN) are able to reduce the operating costs in an industrial plant. Cost-optimal HEN generally leads also to a substantial reduction in pollutant gases emissions. However, HEN synthesis approaches are based generally on the optimization of total annual costs (TAC) only. In t...
