## Description

This MCP server provides tools to manage utility equilibrium in petrochemical complexes. It allows for calculating steam balances, determining power import or export status, and retrieving specific unit demands. By using `evaluate_heat_integration_potential`, users can also estimate savings through pinch analysis and heat recovery optimization.

## Tools

### calculate_power_status
Determines whether the complex needs to buy electricity or can sell it

### evaluate_heat_integration_potential
Estimates the reduction in utility demand achievable through pinch analysis

### calculate_steam_balance
Determines if the complex has a surplus or deficit of steam

### get_unit_demands
Retrieve the specific utility requirements for a given process unit

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the utility requirements for unit U-101?
```

**Response:** 
```
Unit U-101 requires 500 kg/h of steam, 150 kW of power, 200 m3/h of cooling water, and 50 m3/h of instrument air.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is there a steam surplus if we generate 5000 kg/h of steam for units A, B, and C?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total steam demand for units A, B, and C is 4200 kg/h, resulting in a net steam surplus of 800 kg/h.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the power status if cogeneration produces 1000 kW and demand is 1200 kW with a 500 kW import limit?
```

**Response:** 
```
The complex is currently importing 200 kW of power from the grid.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I check the steam surplus or deficit?**
You can use the `calculate_steam_balance` tool by providing the list of unit IDs and the total steam generation.

**Can I estimate energy savings from heat recovery?**
Yes, the `evaluate_heat_integration_potential` tool estimates potential steam and cooling water savings using pinch analysis.

**How is power status determined?**
The `calculate_power_status` tool compares cogeneration output against unit demand to determine if the complex is importing, exporting, or balanced.
