Energy Optimization in Process Systems

Energy is the ability to perform any type of work. It can exist in several different forms such as kinetic, chemical, potential, electrical, nuclear and thermal. Constant and reliable supply of energy is the foundation for all production activities. Energy optimization refers to the management of energy in the built environment in order to optimize advantages for the environment and human beings. Energy optimization and system integration plays a crucial role in reducing negative environmental effects of energy production, rising cost of energy and impending energy shortages. The implementation of energy optimization helps in significantly reducing the carbon emissions across different sectors, which can potentially help prevent the worst effects of climate change. Energy optimization can also be done by using process integration techniques that focus on the network of heat exchangers (HEXs) used widely in industries. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of energy optimization in process systems. It consists of contributions made by international experts. This book is a resource guide for experts as well as students.
