Energy Management and Efficiency for the Process Industries

LAYS OUTTHE UNDERLYING MANAGEMENT ANDTECHNICAL ISSUES THAT DRIVE SUCCESSFUL INDUSTRIAL ENERGY MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS With a Foreword by The Honorable Charles D. McConnell, former Assistant Secretary of Energy Energy efficiency is highly visible in industry in the US and around the world. Many engineers and managers are assigned energy management roles at some point in their careers, but few have a clear understanding of either the scope of the opportunity or the available methodologies to capture savings. Energy Management and Efficiency for the Process Industries is a "go-to" source for engineers and managers who are designing and implementing policies and programs for energy management and energy efficiency. It introduces a framework for an industrial energy management program, provides illustrations, and discusses the basic principles that lead to robust and sustainable improvements in energy performance. Through contributions from leading experts in diverse fields, Energy Management and Efficiency for the Process Industries provides a unique overview of industrial energy management informed by the technologies and issues that drive energy efficiency in the process industries. Divided into two sections, the book provides both management and technical recommendations. The management section offers guidance on how to design and implement energy management programs, with advice on the organizational design, human interaction, and technical aspects of energy management. Management topics include program goal setting, benchmarking, strategies, priorities, tools, the roles of energy management personnel, and case studies from three successful energy programs. The second section deals with more traditional engineering--the technical aspects of significant process equipment and systems, seen through the lens of energy efficiency as well as process requirements. Technical experts provide advice on proven options for understanding and enhancing the energy efficiency of the plant systems and equipment items with the highest impact on process energy efficiency success.
