  3. Abstract:
  4. Exergoeconomic Composite Curves (EECC) - a synergy of Exergoeconomic and Composite Curves of Pinch Analysis is a novel method and propounded for the first time in this Paper. This is the first attempt to represent investment and annual operating and maintenance costs in addition to Exergy in a graphical form similar to Composite Curves. In this Paper a simplified methodology that represents the Exergy of chemical units of a process in a graphical form and preliminary investment strategy is developed for use with the EECC. The object has therefore been to study the possibilities to save money in Northern Pulp and Paper Mill, an Iranian mill with a capacity of 600 tons/day
