dc.description.abstract | This paper presents the results of a recent process integration study by TENSA Services of a food plant. It shows the merit of pinch technology against the traditional wisdom in plant utility management. Through a rigorous pinch analysis, an 18% reduction in total hot utility can be achieved by direct heat integration. An additional 44% can be realized through advanced heat pump installation. Potential process modification option is also presented which reduces the amount of heat being released to the room from hot tanks and thus provides the plant with a more comfortable working environment. | en |
