Valuable references for engineers (as well as for teachers and
students) are the books authored by Robin Smith, Linnhoff’s
successor to head of the Department of Process Integration at UMIST
and—after the university merged to become the University of
Manchester—director of the Centre for Process Integration. Smith
published two books: the first in 1995 and a new version in 2005 that
included more recent developments. Ian Kemp undertook the task
of developing the second (1994) edition of Linnhoff’s red book, and
in 2007 he published an updated and extended version. Some of
UMIST legacy course materials (CPI, 2004 and 2005) were used in
that book (Kemp, 2007), which also includes spreadsheet software
available as a web annex. A handy guidebook entitled A Process
Integration Primer was developed by Gundersen (2000) with support
from the International Energy Agency.
Shenoy (1995) described the application of Heat Integration
methodology to Heat Exchanger Network synthesis. Furman and
Sahinidis (2002) presented a comprehensive review of 461 published
works (through the year 2000) on heat exchanger synthesis, although
this article is rife with misspelled non-English names (e.g., “Klemeš”
was rendered as “Klemebvs”). More recently, Sieniutycz and Jeżowski
(2009) authored a book dedicated to PI and energy optimization
methods.
In addition, a number of books (and chapters of books) have
resulted from the collaboration between Centre for Process
Integration at the University of Manchester and a Centre for Process
2
Integration and Intensification (CPI ), recently created at the
2
University of Pannonia. Key staff members of CPI gained much of
their experience at UMIST, and the two centers have been close
collaborators. Chapters have been published in handbooks related
to energy and to the management of water and waste in food
processing, and the material provided includes advanced
methodology in addition to a number of case studies. This material
can be found in Klemeš and Perry (2007a, 2007b) and in Klemeš,
Smith, and Kim (2008). The water footprint’s connection to water
integration was examined in a chapter from Klemeš, Varbanov, and
Lam (2009), and combining PI with state-of-the-art methods for the
recovery of organic materials from process water in the food industry
was discussed by Napper, Kim, and Bulatov (2009) in their chapter
of that same handbook. Carbon footprint and its relation to energy
efficiency are analyzed in a chapter of Klemeš, Bulatov, and Perry
(2008).
Substantial developments in the field of mass integration have
been reported by Mahmud El-Halwagi and colleagues; in particular,
the synthesis of mass exchange networks (MENs) was reviewed by
El-Halwagi (1997, 1999), El-Halwagi and Spriggs (1998), and Spriggs
and El-Halwagi (2000). This information is also available in the book
