Heat recovery is considered as the key to improve energy efficiency in process design. An appropriate heat exchanger network (HEN) design an effective tool maximize from streams and minimize consumption. The objectives of this study were arranging optimum HEN based on annual cost power industry. Paiton Steam Power Plant, East Java, Indonesia, was designed using spreadsheet Aspen Energy Analyzer...

Integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) technology is becoming increasingly more competitive among advanced power generation systems suitable for carbon capture. As an emerging technology, many different IGCC process configurations have been heuristically proposed to meet even more aggressive economic and environmental goals. One attractive design combines gasification with a water–gas sh...

The main energy conservation opportunities in a dairy plant are refrigeration, and steam generation. This paper aims to identify potential water savings improve the thermal efficiency of fluid milk processing plant, using analysis Heat Integration methods. Methodologies for Pinch Analysis with use HENSAD Aspen Energy Analyzer applied. specific consumptions defined as indicators progress improve...

Processes for ethanol and biogas (scenario 1) and biomethane (scenario 2) production from pinewood improved by N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO) pretreatment were developed and simulated by Aspen plus. These processes were compared with two processes using steam explosion instead of NMMO pretreatment ethanol (scenario 3) and biomethane (scenario 4) production, and the economies of all processes...

The relationship between energy intake and metabolic requirements of beavers {Castor canadensis) is discussed in regard to the spatial requirements of three colonies. A 26pound yearling beaver requires 850 kcal of digestible energy, or 1.5 lb of fresh aspen per day, to maintain its daily metabolic processes with no additional growth. In order for such a beaver to attain maximum growth, 2040 kca...

The steam reforming of ethanol (SRE) on a bimetallic RhPt/CeO2 catalyst was evaluated by the integration of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Aspen Plus (version 9.0, Aspen Tech, Burlington, MA, USA, 2016). First, the effect of the Rh–Pt weight ratio (1:0, 3:1, 1:1, 1:3, and 0:1) on the performance of SRE on RhPt/CeO2 was assessed between 400 to 700 ◦C with a stoichiometric steam/ethanol m...
