Hi,

I'm planning to start a research topic for my postgraduate degree in chemical engineering. I work as a process design engineer for upstream industry.

Can anyone suggest some prospective topics related to pinch technology/process integration application specifically for offshore processing. Normally for offshore platforms, heat integration is less important as compared to refineries.

Thanks
