Process Intensification and Integration for Sustainable Design

Dieses Buch basiert auf grundlegenden Techniken und jüngsten industriellen Erfahrungen und erörtert die zahlreichen Entwicklungen bei der Prozessintensivierung und -integration. Es konzentriert sich auf die Steigerung der Nachhaltigkeit über verschiedene übergreifende Themen wie nachhaltige Fertigung, energiesparende Technologien sowie Techniken zur Ressourcenschonung und Vermeidung von Umweltverschmutzung.

Process Intensification and Integration for Sustainable Design behandelt: Schiefergas als Option für die Herstellung von Chemikalien und Herausforderungen für die Prozessintensivierung; das Design und die technoökonomische Analyse von Trenneinheiten zur Bewältigung der Variabilität der Rohstoffe bei der Schiefergasbehandlung; RO-PRO Entsalzung; und technoökonomische und umweltbezogene Bewertung ultradünner Polysulfonmembranen für die sauerstoffangereicherte Verbrennung. Als nächstes wird die Prozessintensivierung membranbasierter Systeme für Wasser-, Energie- und Umweltanwendungen untersucht, sowie das Design einer intern wärmeintegrierten Destillationskolonne (HIDiC); und grafische Analyse und Integration von Wärmetauschernetzen mit Wärmepumpen. Die Zersetzung und Implementierung einer großflächigen Wärmeintegration zwischen Anlagen sowie die Synthese von Kraft-Wärme-Kopplungsnetzen (CHAMENs) mit erneuerbaren Energien werden behandelt. Das Buch behandelt auch Optimierungsstrategien zur Integration und Intensivierung von Wohnkomplexen; eine Bewertung des nachhaltigen Prozesses zur Umwandlung von Biomasse; und mehr.

• Deckt die vielen Fortschritte und Änderungen bei der Intensivierung und Integration von Prozessen ab
• Behandelt grundlegende Techniken und aktuelle industrielle Erfahrungen, um die Praktiker in ihren eigenen Prozessen anzuleiten
• Bietet umfassende Diskussion zu Themen, die unter anderem für die Prozessindustrie, Bioraffinerien und das Energiemanagement von Anlagen relevant sind
• Bietet eine aufschlussreiche Analyse und Integration des Reaktor- und Wärmetauschernetzwerks
• Behandelt die Optimierung integrierter Wasser- und Multi-Regenerator-Membransysteme mit Multi-Kontaminationen

Process Intensification and Integration for Sustainable Design ist ein ideales Buch für Verfahrenstechniker, Chemieingenieure, Ingenieurwissenschaftler, Ingenieurbüros und Chemiker.

Zusammenfassung

Presents comprehensive coverage of process intensification and integration for sustainable design, along with fundamental techniques and experiences from the industry

Drawing from fundamental techniques and recent industrial experiences, this book discusses the many developments in process intensification and integration and focuses on increasing sustainability via several overarching topics such as Sustainable Manufacturing, Energy Saving Technologies, and Resource Conservation and Pollution Prevention Techniques.

Process Intensification and Integration for Sustainable Design starts discussions on: shale gas as an option for the production of chemicals and challenges for process intensification; the design and techno-economic analysis of separation units to handle feedstock variability in shale gas treatment; RO-PRO desalination; and techno-economic and environmental assessment of ultrathin polysulfone membranes for oxygen-enriched combustion. Next, it looks at process intensification of membrane-based systems for water, energy, and environment applications; the design of internally heat-integrated distillation column (HIDiC); and graphical analysis and integration of heat exchanger networks with heat pumps. Decomposition and implementation of large-scale interplant heat integration is covered, as is the synthesis of combined heat and mass exchange networks (CHAMENs) with renewables. The book also covers optimization strategies for integrating and intensifying housing complexes; a sustainable biomass conversion process assessment; and more.

• Covers the many advances and changes in process intensification and integration
• Provides side-by-side discussions of fundamental techniques and recent industrial experiences to guide practitioners in their own processes
• Presents comprehensive coverage of topics relevant, among others, to the process industry, biorefineries, and plant energy management
• Offers insightful analysis and integration of reactor and heat exchanger network
• Looks at optimization of integrated water and multi-regenerator membrane systems involving multi-contaminants
  Process Intensification and Integration for Sustainable Design is an ideal book for process engineers, chemical engineers, engineering scientists, engineering consultants, and chemists.
