Original abstract

This paper introduces a new tool for HEN analysis and optimisation, tailored to retrofit for improving heat recovery. The HEN Matrix provides a scalable HEN representation, suitable for both mathematical treatment and interactive use by engineers, thus having the potential to further facilitate the work of energy managers and site engineers for improving the energy and emission performance of industrial sites. The types of industry expected to benefit from this decision-making tool include Oil and Gas, Chemicals, Food, Textiles, Pulp and Paper. The provided case study illustrates the usefulness and engineering potential of the new concept.
