State-of-the-Art Review of Pinch Analysis Techniques for Water Network Synthesis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a state-of-the-art overview of the insight-based techniques developed in the 21st century, particularly those developed for single impurity network of the fixed flow rate problems.

Pinch analysis approach to carbon-constrained energy sector planning
Raymond R. Tan,Dominic C. Y. Foo +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new application of pinch analysis for a scenario where energy sector planning takes place with carbon emission constraints arising from an effort to reduce climate change effects, where the minimum amount of zero-carbon energy resource required to achieve the overall emissions target for a country or region, given that the amount of fossil energy resources available are already known.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimization model for re-circulating cooling water systems
TL;DR: An optimization model for the simultaneous synthesis and detailed design of re-circulating cooling water systems using a cooler network superstructure that embeds all network configurations of practical interest is used as part of the integrated model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optimum design of cooling water systems for energy and water conservation
TL;DR: In this paper, a modern grass-root design method of cooling water systems, called Advanced Pinch Design (APD), based on combined pinch technology and mathematical programming is developed for minimum cost achievement.

Design of distributed effluent treatment systems
Ya-Ping Wang,Robin Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a general methodology for the design of distributed effluent treatment systems, which can, in the appropriate circumstances, lead to significantly lower capital and operating costs when compared with centralised treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Designing for the Interactions Between Water-Use and Effluent Treatment
W.-C.J. Kuo,Robin Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors address the interactions between the design of water-using operations and effluent treatment in the process industries and present a new methodology which allows design options to be explored which take into account the interaction between different parts of the overall problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effluent treatment system design
Wen-Chu Janice Kuo,Robin Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present improved methods for the design of distributed effluent treatment systems and extend the concepts to retrofit cases, where the treatment network is developed in a staged approach by repeated use of targets and design.
Journal Article
Waste-Water Minimization with Flow-Rate Constraints
Y. P. Wang,R. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors address water and wastewater minimization in the process industries through re-use in situations where there are fixed flowrate constraints and water losses from operations and situations with multiple sources of freshwater with different qualities are also considered.

Design of Water-Using Systems Involving Regeneration
W.-C.J. Kuo,Robin Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new method for the identification of regeneration opportunities is introduced, which overcomes the difficulties encountered with previous methods and is also complemented by methods to predict the numbe of regeneration and final effluent treatment units.
