We have organized annual meeting Slovenian Chemical Days 2013. The scope of the Slovenian chemists and chemical engineers meeting: - Information of participants about new research results presented in plenary lectures, and section keynote lectures with international participation. - Survey of the latest achievements in research, technical development and innovations (RTDI) from all fields of chemical and process industries. - Presentation of basic and applied research results, promotion of young researchers who are willing to put their knowledge forward to industry. - Exchange of experiences in the field of RTDI. - Chemical and chemical engineering education.

COBISS.SI-ID: 75421441In this work, an extended strategy for efficient and applicable water minimization in process industries is presented. The strategy effectively incorporates environmental, organizational and economic aspects accompanying the water minimization issue. The strategy was tested and applied in several water minimization projects involving chemical and process industries. Four case studies are presented for illustration purpose. The results obtained indicate that in most cases water efficiency can be greatly improved by using technologically, environmentally and economically viable solutions. A case study on Pivovarna Laško d. d. is included among the examples.

COBISS.SI-ID: 15629334The work represents a methodology for simultaneous synthesis of exergy efficient heat recovery/exchange networks. The main topics addressed and incorporated into the framework are: thermodynamic analysis, maximization of heat recovery, synthesis of heat exchanger network and power generation system. The methodology was tested on a large scale Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC). The results obtained indicate that unless a detailed optimization is performed during the synthesis step, optimal tradeoffs are missed, which may result in serious power generation losses.
