the optimization and modeling of a comprehensive energy efficiency plan for the glass industry in iran with regard to international policies

iran is one of the most important developing countries in the field of glass industry in the middle east.a comprehensive program and plan for optimizing energy consumption can create useful solutions and programs. it will also open new horizons before all countries.this paper is suitable for the long-term programs of energy consumption optimization in the iranian glass industry through modeling and optimization of energy flow, using the programming model of efom-env. at first,iranian glass industry is modeled and then it will be optimized from a technicaleconomical viewpoint and with regard to internal and international policies, in a long term horizon, using different scenarios.
