Optimum heat pump placement in industrial processes: Executive summary
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6366099
When heat pumps are integrated into industrial processes, using an adaptation of pinch technology, large energy savings are possible even with modest heat pump temperature lifts. If greater lifts prove to be economically possible with advanced heat pumps, these already impressive savings can be increased significantly. Improving heat integration through economically optimal heat exchange can have a dramatic effect on process energy consumption. ICI and others utilizing pinch technology in process design have been implementing this technology for some time and are now realizing the resulting energy savings and increased profits.
