Heat Integration for the Air-Conditioning Application using Waste Heat Recovery in the Cast Iron Industry

The energy demand in the cast iron industry has been increasing for the past decades. Besides this, there is also high-energy demand for air conditioning, especially in the hot climate of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Process integration tools can identify and measures the potential of energy savi...
