Energy Management and Process Improvement of Methanol Production

A heat exchanger network (HEN) for the process of methanol synthesis has been studied by combination of pinch design method and the application of “Twisted Tube” heat exchanger units as a new technology. The HEN is reconstructed based on the full utilization of maximum allowable pressure drops for the process hot and cold streams. An algorithm is developed to generate design procedure for twist...
