Abstract The development of Genetic Algorithms (GAs) started almost three decades ago, in an attempt to imitate the mechanics of natural systems. Since their inception, they have been applied successfully as optimization methods, and as expert systems, in many diverse applications. In this paper, a GA-based expert. system shell and optimization algorithm is presented that when combined with a proper database comprising the available energy-saving technologies for the process industry, is able to perform the following tasks: a) identify the Best Available Technologies (BATs) among the available ones for a given process industry, and b) calculate their optimal design parameters in such a way that they comply with the energy requirements of the process. By the term BAT, is meant the available energy saving technology, among the existing ones in the market that is the best for the case.
