      Spriggs, H. D.; Ashton, G. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
      Within the past few years, pinch technology has revolutionised the way engineers design and retrofit processes. The technology offers a new approach to process integration based on the application of the pinch ...
    • Mass Integration for Hazardous Wastewater Reuse with Incorporation of Economic and Safety Objectives 
      Zhu, Jialiang J (2018-04-25)
      With the development of society and the increasing population, the water crisis has been a severe problem for several regions in the world. Although various water-treatment technologies have been developed, water shortages ...
    • Optimizing the Utility System of a Tissue Paper Mill Using Pinch Technology 
      Kumana, J. D.; Sung, R. D. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
      A tissue paper mill in southern California had existing utility demands of 7.1 MW for the tissue mill (13 MW for the whole site), and 55 MM Btu/hr of fuel gas for the steam boiler. Total utility costs were $12 MM per year. ...
    • The "Pinch Analysis": Special Cases 
      Bitowft, B.; Tripathi, P. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)
      A method for determining the efficiency and scope for improvement of a process plant's energy consumption, based on pinch technology, is reviewed. While this is a generic approach that applies in most cases, there are ...
    • Pinch Application- Heat Pump Study in a Food Plant 
      Chao, Y. T.; Tripathi, P. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)
      A pinch analysis normally requires a large amount of process information. However, this information usually adds to the overall understanding of the process and utility system. This better understanding of the process ...
