Consider a process with six sinks and five sources (Sorin and Bedard 1999). The process data are given in Tables 3-7 and 3-8. Fresh water is used in the sinks and it is desired to replace as much fresh water as possible using direct-recycle of process sources. Determine the target for minimum usage of fresh water and waste discharge after direct-recycle. How many material recycle pinch points are there? What is their significance?
