TL;DR: A review of the most significant implementations of the Pinch analysis can be found in this article, where the authors identify and substantiate future directions of research for Pinch Methodology applications.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed the new unified concept of Circular Integration for greater transdisciplinary research cohesiveness in the sustainable development of processes, industries, and economies, which combines elements from Process Integration, Industrial Ecology, and Circular Economy into a multi-dimensional, multi-scale approach to the minimisation of resource and energy consumption.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the feasibility of New Zealand reaching and maintaining a renewables electricity target above 90% through to 2050, while also increasing electricity generation at an annual rate of 1.5% while allowing for a 50% switch to plug in electric vehicle transportation for personal use vehicles.

TL;DR: In this paper, the CEPA (Carbon Emissions Pinch Analysis) method for energy planning has been modified for improved application to large transport systems, and the modified method is applied to investigate the feasibility of New Zealand reaching a 1990 emission levels for transport by 2050.

TL;DR: The analysis clearly shows the need to focus future research and development efforts on increasing model fidelity and practicality, addressing operability issues, and most importantly – development of flexible and efficient tools for communicating optimisation results to industrial practitioners and plant managers who would implement the process retrofit recommendations.
