In low-temperature processes, there are interactions between heat exchanger network (HEN) and refrig-eration system. The modification on HEN of the chilling train for increasing energy recovery does not always coor-dinate with the minimum shaft work consumption of the corresponding refrigeration system. In this paper, a sys-tematic approach for optimizing low-temperature system is presented through mathematical method and exergy analysis. The possibility of“pockets”, which appears as right nose section in the grand composite curve (EGCC) of the process, is first optimized. The EGCC with the pockets cutting down is designed as a separate part. A case study is used to illustrate the application of the approach for a HEN of a chilling train with propylene and ethylene refrig-erant system in an ethylene production process.
