Pinch technology is a powerful process design and retrofit tool to minimize energy consumption in chemical processing facilities. The philosophy involved is not always easy to understand. In this 2-hour interactive online course we''ll take you from the basics through the details so that you have a deep understanding of pinch analysis and how to apply it on your next project.

The philosophies behind pinch analysis are discussed. Also included is an overview of some the applications of pinch analysis as well as a case study showing the financial impact that a well-applied pinch analysis can yield.

There will be a test included at the end of this course.


Course Objectives

At the conclusion of this course, you will know how to:

  • Identify opportunity for further heat integration via a pinch analysis
  • Lower the utility costs at your facility by minimizing utility consumption and costs
  • Arrange heat transfer equipment in the most efficient manner
  • Conduct a step by step pinch analysis of a process unit
