Abstract: Highlights•An alternative disjunctive model for simultaneous flowsheet optimization and heat integration.•This method maintains the temperature interval concept to calculate the pinch point.•This is based on an implicit temperature ordering and the “transshipment model”.•Several examples with fixed and variables temperatures are presented.
