Pinch-technology is a method for analyzing and designing
the use of heat energy. It can be best applied to process
industry which uses large amounts of heat energy. Pinch-
technology is based on mass and heat balance of the
concerned process. All the process streams are analyzed.
The so-called hot composite curve consists of all the
streams, which require cooling and the cold composite curve
consists of all the streams, which require heating. With
help of these curves, all the heat transfer of the process
can be analyzed simultaneously. Optimal targets for energy
consumption can be obtained before the design of the heat-
exchanger network. These targets are based on economical
optimization. Pinch-technology can be used also when
designing heat and power cogeneration and for optimal
placing of heat pumps. Computer programs and graphs are
used when designing processes with the pinch-technology.
The composite curves and energy consumption targets can be
easily composed when using software based on pinch-
technology. The topology of the heat-exchanger network in
the early phases of design is convenient to present with
graphical grid presentation

What is a good method of analyzing powders for composition?
X is strong but has a very low density (1% of traditional earth materials.) and hence light weight. It is a recyclable material. The compression behaviour of X is strain rate dependent. Higher strain rates result in higher initial modulus and higher compression strength. It can also withstand unlimited number of cycling loading provided the repetitive loads are kept below 80% of the compressive strength. The internal structure of the material includes air-traps which make it poor heat conductor. X is non- biodegradable and chemically inert in both soil and water. Most acids and their water solutions do not attack it; however strong oxidizing acids do. Solvents which attack X include esters, ketones, ethers, aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons and their emulsions, among others. It does not support bacterial/fungal growth as well .It also has significant acoustic properties and effectively reduces the transmission of airborne sound. X is combustible and should not be exposed to open flame or other ignition sources. Combustion products are carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, water and soot. Long-term exposure to sunlight causes yellowing and a slight embrittlement of the surface due to ultraviolet light. X is able to withstand the rigours of temperature cycling, assuring long-term performance.
