Optimal Stream Discharge Temperatures for a Dryer Operation Using a Thermo-Economic Assessment

A typical drying process that has liquid and gas discharge streams has been analysed and the impact of selecting various combinations of soft temperatures on heat recovery, utility targets, area targets, capital cost and total cost is reported. The method is based on the plus-minus principle and tra...
