In the present study, a specific and simple second law based exergoeconomic model with instant access to the production costs is introduced. The model is generalized for a case study of Shiraz solar thermal power plant with parabolic collectors for nominal power supply of 500 kW. Its applications include the evaluation of utility costs such as products or supplies of production plant, the energy costs between process operations of an energy converter such as production of an industry. Also attempt is made to minimize objective function including investment cost of the equipments and cost of exergy destruction for finding optimum operating condition for such plant.

Process capability analysis combines statistical tools and control charts with good engineering judgment to interpret and analyze the data representing a process. This work analyzes the process capability of a polypropylene bag producing company. The case study organization uses two plants for production and data was collected over a period of nine months for this study. Analysis showed that the output spread of plant 1 was greater than the specification interval spread which implies poor capability. There are non-conforming parts below the Lower Specification Limit (LSL: 500,000 metres) and above the Upper Specification Limit (USL: 600,000 metres) and that the output requires improvement. Similarly, the capability analysis of plant 2 shows that the overall output spread is greater than the specification interval spread (poor capability). The output centre in the specification and overall interval are vertically aligned, thus specifying that the output from plant 2 is also process centered and requires improvement. Recommendations were made to improve the outputs from each production plant.

In this paper the applicability of ultrafiltration and nanofiltration for the treatment of rinsing water in a liquid detergent plant has been investigated. Suitable membranes have been found in a membrane screening with flat sheet material, pilot experiments with industrial spiral wound modules under realistic conditions have shown the membranes' potential for reducing the COD load in the wastewater by up to 96%. Finally an optimum membrane plant structure has been derived by mixed integer nonlinear programming optimisation based on the experimental results. The membrane plant has been integrated into a model of the water network according to the concept for retrofit optimization of water networks strategy.
