Process Integration supporting process design, integration and optimisation has been around for more than 40 years. Its development has been closely related to developing the …
This work presents a review of the main deterministic mixed‐integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) solution methods for problems with convex and nonconvex functions. An overview …
Abstract Absorptive CO 2 Capture (ACC) is widely embraced as a mature technology to mitigate CO 2 emission, but it is energy-intensive and expensive to implement on a …

Heat exchanger network synthesis is an essential optimisation tool for Process Integration, particularly in energy-intensive industries. Proper design or retrofit of heat exchanger …
Much work on heat exchanger network synthesis (HENS) via mathematical programming has employed a stagewise superstructure with the assumption of isothermal mixing. It is well …
This paper proposes a new MINLP model for heat exchanger network synthesis that includes streams with phase change. The model considers every possible combination of …
Several methods for heat exchanger networks (HEN) design are based on the use of superstructures. The models they give rise to can lead to different design options to be …
This work demonstrates process intensification of a solar thermal and natural gas hybrid power plant. Process intensification is achieved in three novel ways: 1-By synergistically …
This work proposes a multiperiod synthesis methodology to optimize simultaneously the utility systems, Rankine cycles and Heat Exchanger Networks considering different expected …
