Abstract: (5649 Views)
Pinch technology used as a tool for energy calculation and target design in context of energy optimization. In 2004, After enthalpy-exergy analysis for Chahar mahal beet sugar factory and applying some changes in heat transfer system, the steam consumption per beet decreased by 34% compared previous year. To enhance the efficiency of energy utilization, pinch analysis was employed to get a better insight into the energy situation in 2004. Based on the results obtained, three tubular heat exchangers were added to the heat exchanging system at a position which by exergy analysis was founded tobe the best, The results showed that the steam consumption per unit weight of beet sugar decreased from 54% in 2004 to 46% in 2005.
