Exergy-Based Efficiency Analysis of Pyrometallurgical Processes [PDF]

open access: yesMetallurgical and Materials Transactions B, 2010
Exergy-based efficiency analysis provides a powerful tool for optimizing industrial processes. In this article, the use of this technique for pyrometallurgical applications is explored in four steps. First, the exergy concept is introduced, the outline of exergy calculations is presented, and the role of a reference state is discussed.
