  • Practical tips on process heating and maintenance
  • How to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions from furnaces
  • How to use DOE's Process Heating Assessment and Survey Tool (PHAST) software tool

The session highlights the use of PHAST, which helps users survey furnaces and heaters, identify major energy-using equipment, prioritize improvement opportunities, and assess available methods to improve thermal efficiency in an industrial plant.
