Abstract
The benzene and coal tar distillation processes typical of Eastern European countries were analyzed. Pinch analysis was selected to perform a reconstruction project. In keeping with the principles of pinch analysis, new heat-exchange network flowsheets were developed, and the heat-exchange equipment was calculated. A complex method applied to the integration of several shops at the Total Site enterprise demonstrated the possibility of integration for a heat pump. Some methods of decreasing the consumption of external energy carriers at the coal-tar plant were shown, and some ways of its stepwise modernization have been proposed.
