What is Conserving material resources through Process Integration about?

Process Integration provides a powerful framework and a set of enabling tools for the design and optimisation of Material Conservation Networks. This chapter provides an overview of key problems and tools in the area of conserving material resources. The introduction discusses the primary classes and strategies of material conservation problems. First, overall mass targeting techniques are presented to determine performance benchmarks independent of technologies and cost. Then, various approaches are discussed to attain these targets in a cost-effective manner. Examples of low/no-cost strategies are given (e.g. Water Pinch, Hydrogen Pinch, Material Recycle Pinch Diagram). Targeting and synthesis techniques for medium-cost strategies are also given with a description of the basic Mass-Exchange Network problem. Property Integration is also discussed, and a sample tool (Property-Based Material Recycle Pinch Diagram) is described along with applications. To extend the applicability of Material Conservation Networks to multiple plants, the concept of Eco-industrial Parks is discussed with a focus on Carbon–Hydrogen–Oxygen SYmbiosis Networks.
