| Energy Saving & Conservation |
| |
Indian industry is under a tremendous pressure from global competition. Profit margins have vanished in thin air as market forces decide selling prices, whereas input prices are exponentially increasing. Cost cutting is the key to survival.
In todays world the simplest way of cost cutting is to introduce new technology, increase the production within time with minimum manpower requirement. But this is not always possible with small or medium type of industries. Even not for the bigger size due to cut-throat competition. Hence we suggest to go with the taking an advantage of law of conservation. Our ancients were rightly said that use as much as you require but do not waste.
We are concentrating on the essential part of any industry for conservation and that is energy. That might be in the form of electricity or thermal energy. No such industry can develop its base without any one of this energy and hence there is always possibility of wastage and conservation opportunity in the energy.
WHAT IS ENERGY AUDIT?
Energy is often the single largest controllable cost in manufacturing. Proper management of energy has a direct positive impact on a companys bottom line. Energy audit is the first step in knowing the potential energy savings. It identifies area where the energy is being wasted by taking measurements at the key energy consumption points and the systematic study. It determines existing level of energy usage and recommends possible measures that would result in energy savings.
Moreover the fact that the Energy Audit can identify the wastage and save a 15% of the energy bill.
The Energy Audit involves:
- Consolidation of energy and
production related data
- Examination of energy
conservation opportunities
- Comparison with the best
industrial practices
- Recommendations and action plan
for energy savings
"Such details
brought out in energy audit reports help
management arrive at investment decision
for corrective measure and exercise
necessary controls on energy wastage."
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT FOLLOWING
THINGS?
- Can I improve performance of my
utility equipment?
- How much my steam
consumption?
- How much my water
consumption?
- How much my air
consumption?
- Is it the best technology?
- Can we improve our
performance without big capital
investment?
- Can I save money without
effect on production?
We brought answers of all above
question.
SOME FACTS AND
FIGURES
- 22 ˚C reduction in flue gas
temperature increases boiler
efficiency by 1 %
- 5 % reduction in excess air
increases boiler efficiency by 1 %
- A 1 mm thick scale deposit on
water side could increase fuel
consumptionby5 to 8 %
- A 3 mm thick soot deposit on the
heat transfer surface can cause an
increase in fuel consumption to the
tune of 2.5%
- 6 ˚C raise in feed water
temperature by economizer/
condensate recovery corresponds to a
1 % saving in fuel consumption, in
boiler
- High efficiency motors offer of
4-5 % higher efficiency than
standard motors
- Reduction of 1 kg/cm² air
pressure would result in 5-6 % input
power saving
