spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/5350 Water minimisation at Skorpion zinc Bhikha, Harshad Lewis, Alison Emslie Deglon, David A Chemical Engineering Includes synopsis. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 80-84). This work proposes a systemic optimisation of the water balance of the Skorpion Zinc refinery, the case study selected for this work. The Skorpion process is located in Rosh Pinah in Namibia and was selected due to its location on an ecologally sensitive region where water is scarce. The project proposes that peocess optimisation cannot occure through focus on unit operations in isolation, but rather to use the interactions between the different operations to optimise the process systematically. 2014-07-31T11:12:43Z 2014-07-31T11:12:43Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5350 eng application/pdf Department of Chemical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
