Utility System Synthesis

Utility System Synthesis is a systematic methodology within process synthesis that integrates the design and optimization of utility networks—such as steam, power, and refrigeration systems—to simultaneously satisfy process energy demands and minimize operational or capital costs through coordinated selection, allocation, and configuration of utility generation and distribution units.
