About this book

This book provides a thorough guidance on maximizing the performance of utility systems in terms of sustainability. It covers general structure, typical components and efficiency trends, and applications such as top-level analysis for steam pricing and selection of processes for improved heat integration. Examples are provided to illustrate the discussed models and methods to give sufficient learning experience for the reader.

A guide on modelling and optimization of utility systems with an economic and environmental aspect
Fundamental and general principles, equipment types and network topologies and extended applications
Combination of discussions and working sessions
