Surplus diagram and cascade analysis technique for targeting property-based material reuse network

Source composite curve for waste reduction

“…El-Halwagi and co-workers have developed visualization tools to synthesize and analyze material reuse networks [31][32][33][34][35]. Proposed algorithm can be also applied to such material reuse problems.…”

Synthesis of Heat-Integrated Resource Conservation Networks

“…On the other hand, developed algebraic tools for processes involving more than three properties. Kazantzi and El-Halwagi (2005) and Foo et al (2006a) extended the conventional targeting techniques developed for concentration-based RCN into property integration problem. Besides, Ng and co-workers extended their automated targeting techniques (Ng et al, 2009a;Ng et al, 2009b) for property-based RCN problems too (Ng et al, 2009c;Ng et al, 2010).…”

A rigorous targeting algorithm for resource allocation networks

“…are also important for synthesizing process flow diagram of a chemical process industry. El-Halwagi and his co-workers have developed visualization tools to synthesize and analyze material reuse networks (Shelley and El-Halwagi, 2000;El-Halwagi et al, 2004;Qin et al, 2005;Kazantzi and El-Halwagi, 2005;Foo et al, 2006). To illustrate the applicability of the proposed methodology an example of metal degreasing process is considered .…”

“…Pinch analysis, which began as a thermodynamic-based approach to energy conservation (Linnhoff et al, 1982), has evolved over the years to become a powerful tool for process integration and resource optimization (Linnhoff, 1993;Shenoy, 1995;Smith, 1995). Pinch analysis has been fruitfully used in analyzing heat exchanger networks (Shenoy, 1995), utility systems (Hall et al, 1992;Shenoy et al, 1998), integration of fired heaters Bandyopadhyay, 2005, 2007), mass exchanger networks (El-Halwagi and Manousiouthakis, 1989;Fraser, 1998, 2000a,b), water networks (Wang and Smith, 1994;Prakash and Shenoy, 2005;Bandyopadhyay et al, 2006), cooling water system (Kim and Smith, 2001), hydrogen management (Alves, 1999;Hallale and Liu, 2001;Hallale et al, 2002), material reuse networks (Shelley and El-Halwagi, 2000;El-Halwagi et al, 2004;Qin et al, 2005;Kazantzi and El-Halwagi, 2005;Foo et al, 2006), distillation column (Bandyopadhyay et al, 1999(Bandyopadhyay et al, , 2003(Bandyopadhyay et al, , 2004Bandyopadhyay, 2002Bandyopadhyay, , 2007Deshmukh et al, 2005), production planning (Singhvi and Shenoy, 2002;Singhvi et al, 2004), batch processes (Foo et al, 2004(Foo et al, , 2005, renewable energy systems (Kulkarni et al, 2007;Arun et al, 2006), etc. Recently, Bandyopadhyay et al (2006) have introduced a source composite curve-based approach for simultaneously targeting distributed effluent treatment system and th...…”
