Pinch Technology – Process Integration Technique for the Efficient Use of Energy
Hernia, G.R. and Aguilar, P.S. 1991. Pinch technology is based on the second principle of thermodynamics, mathematics and engineering science. It lies on the principle that two thermodynamically separate systems are in enthalpy balance when the targeted amount of heating and cooling are performed or when there is heat transfer. Through this technology, capital and energy cost can be calculated. PROCEEDINGS OF THE PHILIPPINE SUGAR TECHNOLOGISTS. August: 330-347.
