iets descriptioniets descriptioniets descriptioniets description� An IA dealing with new industrial energy technologies and

systems.

� Established in 2005 as the results of merging, revampingand extending activities formerly carried out by separateIA’s (ProcessProcess integrationintegration, , PulpPulp and and paperpaper, , Heat Exchangers and Heat Transfer, Heat Exchangers and Heat Transfer, SeparationSeparation Technologies)Technologies)SeparationSeparation Technologies)Technologies)

� To ease participation by countries in a broad range of industrial areas.

� To increase awareness of technology and energy efficiencyopportunities in industry.

� To promote energy efficient industrial technologies and systems

� Contribution of industrialactivities to energyconsumption

� 1/3 of the world consumption
