heat integration (Heat integration, as defined by the IEA since 1993, is the Systematic and General Methods for Designing Integrated Production Systems ranging from Individual Processes to Total Sites, with special emphasis on the Efficient Use of Energy and reducing Environmental Effects"[1]. It joins basically all the technologies that can help minimize energy consumption of an industry, without changing the processes themselves. Heat integration considers industries as a whole, and intends to re-use all heat outputs of certain processes, if they can be usable in the moment or later. ixtra) |
