A Material and Energy Flow Oriented Method for Enhancing Energy and Resource Efficiency in Aluminium Foundries

摘要: For various reasons like rising energy and material costs, governmental regulations or customer awareness, resource efficiency has become more important in the last years. Against this background, paper proposes a systematic method to foster for case of (aluminium) foundries. Based on priorisation measurements consumers methodology applies flow analysis as mean structuring analyzing data includes all relevant forms energy. On base, alternative concepts enhancing can be identified holistically evaluated.
