Abstract:
Configurations and related processing schemes of specific inter-plants and hybrid, intra- and inter-plants waste heat recovery schemes for thermal energy consumption reduction in integrated refining-petrochemical facilities synthesized for grassroots medium grade crude oil semi-conversion refineries to increase energy efficiency from specific portions of low grade waste heat sources are described. Configurations and related processing schemes of specific inter-plants and hybrid, intra- and inter-plants waste heat recovery schemes for thermal energy consumption reduction in integrated refining-petrochemical facilities synthesized for integrated medium grade crude oil semi-conversion refineries and aromatics complex for increasing energy efficiency from specific portions of low grade waste sources are also described.

Claim (Index 12):
The system of  claim 10 , wherein, to indirectly heat the first plurality of streams through the buffer fluid, the system comprises:\n a first heat exchanger configured to heat a branch of the buffer fluid using a raffinate column overheads stream; a second heat exchanger configured to heat a branch of the buffer fluid using the extract column overheads stream in the aromatics plant xylene products separation unit; and a third heat exchanger configured to heat a branch of the buffer fluid using the first stage reaction feed stream to a cold high pressure separator in the hydrocracking plant, wherein the flow control system is configured to perform operations comprising collecting the branches of the heated buffer fluid in a buffer fluid collection header.
