Targeting method of heat exchanger network in olefin unit of oil refinery

Optimum design of HEN can cause significant reduction in the total cost of the plant. Targeting method using pinch analysis diagrams was presented to find out investment cost required and the period of return of the investment of optimization of the refinery system. This method can be done by knowin...
