Integrating process optimization with energy-efficiency scheduling to save energy for paper mills

Energy, Exergy and Economic Analyses of a Combined Heating and Power System with Turbine-Driving Fans and Pumps in Northeast China

“…The economic analysis of the system is conducted by comparing the operational costs of turbine-driving mode with the electricity-driving mode. For the system, if auxiliaries are driven by power, then on 15 December 2018, the power consumption of feed water pump, desulfurization pump and the induced draft fans can be calculated by Equation (18):…”

A CO2 emissions assessment of the green economy in Iran

“…Moreover, the results show that energy structure and energy efficiency are able to reduce CO 2 emission in Iran. That is, Iran by adjusting its energy structure from pure fossil fuel to natural gas improved energy efficiency and has been able to protect the environment from greater levels of CO 2 emission, which is one of the solutions toward a low‐carbon economy 50–52 . These findings are not consistent with the results of Lin and Benjamin's 53 study for China that argued that energy structure and energy efficiency are able to increase carbon emission.…”

A Comprehensive Review on NSGA-II for Multi-Objective Combinatorial Optimization Problems

“…Zeng et al [168] used NSGA-II with tabu search for energy-efficiency scheduling in paper mills to save energy. The proposed algorithm performed better than NSGA-II.…”
