Pinch technology is the best practice for heat exchanger networks optimization from an OPerating EXpenses point of view. Its main goal is to find a compromise between the investment required for the additional units and the external duty demand. The standard procedure is based on a preliminary thermodynamic assessment followed by the network optimization according to the feasibility of the operation.

Abstract

Pinch technology is the best practice for heat exchanger networks optimization from an OPerating EXpenses point of view. Its main goal is to find a compromise between the investment required for the additional units and the external duty demand. The standard procedure is based on a preliminary thermodynamic assessment followed by the network optimization according to the feasibility of the operation. The results thus obtained allow then the decision maker to select the optimal solution according the specific needs of the case under analysis.
