Summary

SEVERAL FACTORS MAY BE EXPECTED TO INFLUENCE THE OVERALL ECONOMICS OF HEAT PUMP ASSISTED DISTILLATION SYSTEMS. SOME OF THESE ARE DESIGN AND OPERATIONAL, WHILE OTHERS ARE PURELY ECONOMIC FACTORS. A DESIGN AND ECONOMIC MODEL IS PRESENTED IN THIS PAPER WHICH CAN BE USED FOR A PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF HEAT PUMP ASSISTED DISTILLATION SYSTEMS. TWO IMPORTANT POINTS OF CONSIDERATION IN THE DESIGN, NOTABLY, THE PROBLEM OF MATCHING THE HEAT LOADS BETWEEN THE HEAT PUMP AND THE DISTILLATION SECTIONS, AND THE SELECTION OF THE HEAT PUMP WORKING FLUID, ARE DISCUSSED.
