Abstract

Batch processes present additional challenges to continuous processes, both for analysis and for achieving energy saving projects. Heat loads tend to be smaller and often do not coexist, reducing potential energy savings. Nevertheless, opportunities can be identified through the time average model (TAM), time slice model (TSM), heat storage and rescheduling of operations. Debottlenecking and cycle time reduction may be achieved. The analysis techniques can also be effectively applied to other time-dependent situations, such as start-up, shutdown and intermittent operation.
