Business concerns continue to devise means for minimal energy utilization due to rising energy cost, environment concerns, and the need to maximise profit. For systems designed during the era of cheap energy, retrofitting becomes a viable option. This research applies heat integration techniques to monitored industrial plant data of a functional refinery to retrofit the preheat section of the …
