This work provides the first systematic critical review of mass exchanger network synthesis
literature. Mass exchanger networks play a central role in many pollution reduction and …

One major challenge confronting absorptive CO 2 capture is its high energy requirement,
especially during stripping and sorbent regeneration. To proffer solution to this challenge …

Mass exchange network (MEN) synthesis is an important technique to ensure efficient
purification of industrial waste gas sources and water streams. However, most existing …

The use of the mathematical programming approach to the synthesis of chemical processes
has many valuable creative principles, ie optimality, feasibility and integrality of solutions …

The use of mass exchange networks is an effective means of reducing both pollutant
emissions and investment costs in chemical industrial processes. Here, a new simultaneous …

A new simultaneous mixed integer non-linear programing (MINLP) approach to heat
exchange network synthesis (HENS) and mass exchange network synthesis (MENS) is …

Since the early 90's, Composite Curves (CC) and the Grid Diagram (GD) have been among
the most popular graphical tools for targeting and design of Mass Exchange Networks …

Pinch analysis is a methodology for minimizing energy and mass consumption in different
industries. It has been widely applied for more efficient processes. This study presents a new …

We present a new method for the synthesis of mass exchanger networks (MENs) involving
packed columns. Simultaneous synthesis of MENs is typically done through the use of mixed …

This paper presents new methods for the optimisation of superstructures involving heat
exchanger networks (HENs) and mass exchanger networks (MENs). The techniques …
