PROCESS INTEGRATION FOR ENERGY CONSERVATION
The research in Process Integration through Pinch
Technology started in the late 1970s and early 1980s with an emphasis on Energy
Conservation. Pinch Technology comprises a set of simple and elegant tools with
a fundamental thermodynamic basis. When applied in a systematic and logical
manner, these design principles allow the process engineer to explore
alternatives that are economically attractive for grassroots as well as
retrofit applications. The technology recognizes the vital necessity to set
targets, i.e., to predict the optimum energy use or the amount of energy that
can possibly be conserved in a process. Process engineer with a sound knowledge
of pinch principles can exploit the available energy conservation options to
arrive at an optimal design through process integration.
The course is planned to equip practicing engineers
with the principles of pinch technology and techniques of process integration
for better process design (economically attractive design with optimal energy
requirement), through a judicious blend of theory and industrial case studies.
The course will consist of lecture sessions; tutorial / hands-on training
sessions; software and industrial case-study sessions.
All participants will receive free software for pinch analysis along with the course notes.
This course is intended for professionals in the
chemical process industries and engineering consulting companies who are
involved either with process design, energy conservation, and/or energy
planning decisions.
The programme will be held at the Institute Guest House, IIT Bombay. IIT Bombay is a small township in
itself. Consciously developed, the campus has retained and increased its green
cover, rich in natural flora and fauna. The campus extends over 220 hectares
amidst picturesque surroundings with Vihar and Powai lakes on either side.
The Indian Institute of Technology Bombay is one of
the premier technological institutes in India with students and faculty who are
comparable with the best in the world. The institute has a vibrant research
culture and has several linkages with Indian and international industries and
institutes.
Energy Systems Engineering (ESE) is an inter-disciplinary
programme with a mission to develop sustainable energy systems and solutions
for the future. Apart from the post-graduate (M.Tech and Ph.D.) programmes, the
ESE faculty have been actively involved in organizing training programme in the
field of energy efficiency, energy conservation and renewable energy.
The course will provide a detailed
coverage of the basics and fundamentals of process integration techniques
through pinch technology. It will cover the following topics:
·
Energy Conservation Opportunities
·
Simulation of Process Plants
·
Energy Targeting and Pinch Principles
·
Design of Heat Exchanger Networks
·
Energy Targets in Distillation
·
Multiple Utility Targeting
·
Process Integration Techniques
·
Cogeneration: Introduction and Targeting
·
Industrial Case Studies
·
Tutorial and hands-on training sessions
