Energy Optimization Study In an Ethanol Production Unit Using Pinch Technology

Abstract

Savio Rogerio De Siqueira Magalhaes, Yan Patrick Costa Das Neves and Orientor Diniz Alves De Santana Silva

This work presents an energy optimization study in a distillation and dehydration unit of a conventional ethanol producing bio refinery, based on the Pinch method. This proposal resulted in savings of 69.2% in operational costs with utilities, just with energy integration, turning the process significantly cheaper.
