Analysis of Energy Efficiency of Industrial Processes

This volume uses the fundamentals of thermodynamics to address primarily students as well as workers and researchers in energy resource management and chemical and mechanical engineering. V.S. Stepanov's method of analysis of energy efficiency of industrial production schemes takes into account the thermodynamic chemical energy and "exergy" of all substances/apparatuses involved, from the acquisition of raw materials to the recycling of waste products. Prognoses are made for large-scale metallurgical plants. Particular emphasis is placed on the assessment of the optimal volume of secondary energy resource use.
