Minimizing capital and operating expenditure through process integration is a crucial step toward energy optimization and process intensification.
Energy optimization, through heat integration, using thermal pinch analysis is carried out by CEPL, thereby maximizing the energy efficiency and financial savings, for both plant retrofits as well as for new plant designs.
Implementing the thermodynamic principles, CEPL follows the systematic methodology for energy savings in processes through PINCH ANALYSIS.
Pinch analysis at CEPL is initiated by simulating the processing facility, thereby converging it to extract the heat and material balance data. Identifying the process heating and cooling duties, the composite curves (Temperature-Enthalpy curves) are constructed to determine the energy targets. The energy exchange network is subsequently designed to achieve the targeted savings. The energy exchange network is then optimized constraining to the pinch point to obtain a heat-integrated facility.
We provide engineering consultation to our clients through:
- Recognizing the potential for energy efficiency
- Minimized operating expenditure on utility services
- Effective utilization of energy exchange equipment
- Assuring the most practical approach for maximizing heat recovery and energy supply
CEPL‘s pinch analysis, which is a systematic examination of processing facilities and auxiliary services, ensures financial savings through improved heat integration.
