Who should attend?

Audience

- Engineers from process, engineering, R&D departments of industrial plants in various industries (oil, gas, petrochemical, chemical, energy, paper, food, etc.).

Level

Advanced

This course provides comprehensive and applied knowledge of pinch analysis and covers how to improve energy efficiency in existing plants or new projects.

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:
define the constraints and stakes of energy efficiency,
describe the main methods of energy analysis,
carry out an analysis of current energy needs in an industrial plant and make improvement proposals,
propose ways and means for reducing energy consumption and CO₂ emissions.

Course Content

ENERGY EFFICIENCY & CONTEXT

0.5 day

Definition of Key Performance Indicators: energy intensity and efficiency, units and use.
Motivations and constraints: energy dependence and regulation.
Energy management system: PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act), ISO 50001 standard.
Different approaches for energy efficiency: operation improvement, operating conditions optimization and other significant improvement solutions (pinch analysis, alternative technology, process design, best available techniques).

PINCH ANALYSIS & MAIN RULES

0.5 day

Composite curves (hot and cold streams): building, description and interest.
Pinch point: characteristics and help for solutions design. Key parameters: ΔT_min, integration ratio.
Main rules: “cross pinch”, “plus or minus principle”…
Illustration through examples (heat exchanger network, selection of a compressor).
Advantage of an expert software dedicated to energy analyses.

METHODOLOGY FOR ENERGY ANALYSIS: MAIN STEPS & CASE STUDIES

2 days

Several case studies proposed and based on a methodology for energy analysis, adapted for industrial plants or new projects.
At this step, trainees will be able to:
Characterize the energy needs and potential of a process.
Design the most consuming pieces of equipment or steps.
Define savings targets.
Propose potential solutions and options.
Simplify it in order to select most profitable and operational options.
