Popis: |
The depletion of fossil fuels and environmental pollution (e.g., greenhouse gas emissions) through the combustion of fossil fuels have stimulated studies on new technologies able to curtail the energy consumption of existing fractionation units. In this regard, heat pumps have garnered substantial attention due to their potential to improve the process energy efficiency. This study aims to provide extensive economic analysis and environmental impact assessment of the application of heat pumps under different conditions and scenarios. For this purpose, we first selected three important conditions: feed composition, plant capacity, and fuel price. Then, we performed a range of analyses to identify the major costs and environmental drivers. The economics and environmental impact of heat pump-assisted distillation was investigated and compared with those of conventional distillation. |
