Riassunto

In recent years, the world’s atmospheric C02 concentration has averaged 420 ppm, exceeding the critical level of sustainable and safe operating space for humanity. Although there are various technologies and tools to mitigate these effects brought on by climate change, there is a need to systematize these technologies with the aid of decision tools to gain insights on how efficiently decarbonize the industrial sector in a large scale.

Process Systems Engineering Tools for Industrial Decarbonization provides the current state-of-the-art mathematical tools for large-scale deployment of technologies underpinning low-carbon industrial processes and systems. This book will analyze various systematic approaches for planning, decision-making, and designing of systems for industrial decarbonization. It will provide both experts and readers with recent developments on methods that enable different technologies, such as CCUS, NETs, and other decarbonization techniques to be deployed in large-scale once the technology matures. These planning tools contributes to enable them to perform their expected contribution to sustainable and low-carbon future.

John Frederick D. Tapia is an associate professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines. He develops research on optimization tools such as for carbon, capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) and oil palm value chain.


The team has a combined H-index of 113. It is composed of a junior faculty (Dr. Tapia) whose experience is on the development of mathematical tools for planning and design of industrial systems such as CCUS, and oil palm value chain, and two professors (Prof Tan and Prof Foo) with extensive experience as editors on process integration and optimizations. Their background in industrial decarbonization research (e.g., CCUS, bioenergy, etc.) enables the development of high-quality book chapters that, together create a collection of systematic tools for industrial decarbonization.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Process Systems Engineering (PSE) Tools for Industrial Decarbonization provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in systematic methods for reducing industrial carbon emissions. Covering cutting-edge topics such as carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS), negative emission technologies (NETs), and bioenergy, the book emphasizes decision-making and optimization techniques like process graphs (P-graphs), data envelopment analysis, and pinch analysis. It offers insights into large-scale deployment of low-carbon technologies through case studies and practical applications, making it an essential resource for designing sustainable and climate-friendly industrial processes.

The book guides readers through a review of mathematical tools, optimization of energy systems with NETs, and systematic approaches for decarbonization. It explores the use of P-graph models for CCUS and bioenergy applications, as well as graphical methods such as pinch analysis techniques and Piper diagram for targeted emission reductions. It demonstrates the use of data envelopment analysis for geological reservoir selection. These chapters demonstrate how advanced PSE tools can be applied to real-world decarbonization challenges, supporting the transition to a low-carbon future.

This book is an invaluable resource for practicing engineers, researchers, policymakers, and students involved in process design, energy planning, and environmental management. It provides the latest decision-making frameworks and optimization methods necessary for large-scale deployment of decarbonization technologies. By equipping professionals with these tools, it enables effective strategies for reducing industrial emissions and advancing sustainable development. This book empowers stakeholders across industrial sectors to implement innovative solutions, contributing to a sustainable, low-carbon future for humanity.
