Continuous individual plot curves technique for simultaneous targeting and design of a mass exchange network

In the last two decades, Mass Exchange Network (MEN) synthesis has been explored to design mass exchanger system to systematically minimize Mass Separating Agents (MSAs) and waste in process industries. Heuristic approach through pinch analysis is a convenient method to analysis mass-based separatio...

Sanitary engineering In the last two decades, Mass Exchange Network (MEN) synthesis has been explored to design mass exchanger system to systematically minimize Mass Separating Agents (MSAs) and waste in process industries. Heuristic approach through pinch analysis is a convenient method to analysis mass-based separation network synthesis i.e. the mass transfer between rich and lean stream (process and external MSAs).

Continuous Individual Plot (CIP) approach has been developed to map continuous stream profiles of rich streams and lean streams involved in the MEN problem. Along with introduction of Mass Allocation Network (MAN) diagram, these new tools overcome sequential step practiced by current pinch-based approaches in synthesizing MEN.A set of heuristics are also produced to guide the procedure of these new tools. Systematic steps to analyze capital cost early during MSA targets of stream–matching are also provided. The research has demonstrated the ability of the new method with two industrial-based literature case studies for continuous system with single transferable component.
