Energy recovery maximum, heat exchanger network design

Example 16.1 The process stream data for a heat recovery network problem are given in Table 16.1. A problem table analysis on these data reveals that the minimum hot utility requirement for the process is 15 MW and the minimum cold utility requirement is 26 MW for a minimum allowable temperature diflFerence of 20°C. The analysis also reveals that the pinch is located at a temperature of 120°C for hot streams and 100°C for cold streams. Design a heat exchanger network for maximum energy recovery in the minimum number of units.
